Default opinions on stall converter and radix 112

I was hoping to get pointed into the rite direction I'm getting ready to install my new motor, trans and all the good stuff that goes with it. Truck is a 99 ext cab step side and Im putting a stock 07 vette LS2 longblock with a blower cam. specs are 226/236 604. 604. 114 lsa with a Magnuson mp112 supercharger. 4.10 gears, Trans is built 80e and my goal will be 500-530 rwhp I'll also have a plate kit on it to cool it off on track days... Or street days whatever comes first.. I already have a triple disc P.I. stall. mike with pi said it will stall anywhere from 3400-3800 just depends on how much power it makes. does anyone think I'll have a problem with it just blowing through the converter if so i think I will have it tightened up a Lil bit? And I'm not worried about fuel mileage or anything like that.
Thanks Bret..

I would go smaller on the cam and tighter on the converter.

That cam is too big for a 6.0 with the MP112. It has a few degrees of overlap, which arent a bad thing if the blower can handle it, but in this case it really cant. 3* of overlap is overkill here. I would shorten it up to a max of about 220 on a 111 ICL. In general a 220/230 114+3 would be much more in line with what you need and still on the big side for the 112/6.0 combo.

Have PI tighten up the converter to their 2600-2800 range. The 112 makes power insanely fast.

Ok thanks for the info. And I forgot to mention earlier that the cam was spec. By pat g I ask for a pretty choppy idle so I'm sure that's why he came up with that grind. And I'm sure ill be sending the converter off for a Lil tightening up this wk.
