Default torque converters

I'm going to supercharge my truck,2012 silverado 4.8, and was wondering what stall I should get. Right now I have a cam from comp cams with a lift of .559 int .571 exh, cooks long tube tuned header, borla exhaust and hallowed out cats. Any opinions

Sounds like our 278mm will be a good choice, 3000-3200 range. What is the duration on your cam? And is the a 4L60 or 6L80?

I believe the 2012 4.8 is still a 4L60, not 100% sure though. Also noticed you said adding a supercharger, what kind? How much boost? And what are your plans with the truck, how much street vs strip?
