Default Quick cam, converter question

Well I finally ordered my cam package and I went with a 220/224 .564/.568 112 lsa and I have a yank 3200 ss converter. Now a few people I've been talking to said I should go with a 3600 for that cam, what do y'all think? Thanks

I hear ya there but how much do you think drivability will be affected with the 3200 compared to the 3600. It is my daily driver but I only drive about 100 a week.

do you have any track times as of now? A 3600 will get you about .1-.2 over your 3200

I'd do the cam swap and see how the truck reacts with the 3200. It will run very well, it just depends if you want that little extra 60' and et at the track.

Well my 2600 cruises around almost like stock.. I bet a 3200 would be a good all around converter as far track times and drivability but of coarse a 3600 will get you better times at the track

You should be fine with that cam, converter combination.. Like stated normally the bigger the better, just to keep the rpm's up in the power range.. But the 3200 will be just fine..

At least you have a good 3200, instead of a restalled Trailblazer converter. Truck should run pretty damn good with that setup,
