To Convert or not to convert?
All right, I need some more advice. With my future mods listed in my sig, what kind of torque convertor should I get? I have heard that there are convertors for everything from a 2400-3000. I would like to narrow it down a little. I am going to place the order tommorow.

I think with your modifications you should be running way under a 13.4. I've heard of stock LT1 autos running 13.4, are you having traction problems of somesort and with 3.73's and a torque converter you should be at 12.8 if tuned properly.

Re: To Convert or not to convert? (Black96Corvette)
I had crappy react time and I was running on street tires. I had trouble with traction even with a big burn out. I hope the 315/35/17's eliminate it. I will be going to the track this weekend and see what the 315/35/17's and the 3.73's do.
