Default Which Converter??

Alright guys...I'm eyeing a few converters. Which one would YOU pick? Combo is starting as a max effort bolt-on, then cam/heads. Truck in sig, and yes I'm doing all this to a 4.8, and no I don't wanna hear the whole no replacement for displacement phrase. I know a 6.0 or 6.2 would be great, BUT I want mid 13's from a cam/ bolt on 4.8 in a cc.

My goal with just my cai, tune, and converter with the 3.23's is 14.5's.
Then from there LT's, ORY, Cam, Head work or heads, blah blah.

Vote it up!

I am a little biased of course, but our 245mm 5C you mentioned would rock!!!

I just talked to chris a cicle d, super cool guy, we discussed the goals and options, looks like a 245 or a 230 mm 4400 may be in the future soon. He said either will leave room for approx a 150 shot. He was informative and spent time to answer my questions, no rush to get me off the phone. I am a service manager myself and its always great to receive great service. Thanks Chris, be calling soon.

Well I came across a low mileage (less than 5K) that I was able to pickup for 450 shipped! I talked to a friend that has ran both and while I think its a tossup, I'm going to try the yankPT first. I will post up a vid once its in, should be by the end of the upcoming week.
