Default torque 2 me baby!

I'll keep this short. I need a new T/C, but the car is my daily driver so i'm willing to give up a little performance for reliablity/drivabilty. I'm also going to keep my 3:15's.
I think i would like to go with the yank but not exactly sure which one is right for me. I'm trying to decide between the Yank C-5 super street(3200) or the Super Yank C-5 (3500). They say the 3500 is their hardest hitting one which makes me think it might be too much for what i'm looking for. I have the tires to handle it its the rest of my drivetrain/trans (all stock) i'm worried about.
Does anyone run either one of these on a daily driver(or at least one you drive with some regularity) :chevy

SY-3500 is not there hardest hitting, in fact just the opposite. Its 1.65 STR is made to provide more power up top not off the line. You may be thinking the ST-3500 and it recommends drag radials.

Might be a little much for your gear size, but contact Mike at Yank for specific usage. Probably a 3000 series w/ 3.15's
