Default Trans / Converter Suggestions on Procharged 5.3?

Hey guys. Just picked up a 2001 Silverado with a Procharged 5.3. Only other mods are headers and exhaust along with supporting mods for the supercharger. Truck is a 4x4. Truck already has 100,000 miles on it. Looking for a trans / converter that will help it launch great out of the whole for drag racing but that I can also use for daily driving / light jet ski maybe once a month. Daily driving means, stop and go, gas mileage, etc. Looking to do the trans and converter all at once. What do you guys suggest? Thanks!

We have a few options for you. How much power is it putting out? What size stall are you looking for? We have a 258MM we can make that should fit the bill, stall ranges 2800-3600. Single or Multi Disk.

FLT is right up there by you, I would go with one of their units regardless though!

Feel free to give us a call. Not sure where exactly you are located. "Northern Illinois" to me is either where the college is or anywhere north of us! If there is something we can do for you let us know. Vince
