Within a week of the install you won't even notice it's there,you definately need to go with the 3000 stall.

With the 4L80E, I am limited to only 2 stalls.
Yank only offers a 2600 & a 3200 for compatibility with the 4L80E (6.0, 8.1)

3200 is gonna be too steep for me I think.
SO I'm thinkin' the 2600.

Parish,
What do you think?
As I was saying, "2 Jet Skis.........."

i would go 3000 at least and if you plan on runing slicks go with a higher STR, yank can make you anything you want but i am not real happy with yanks customer service. if your not going with slicks the HD 3200 one they have listed would be great, if you are running slicks then something similer but with a higher STR like 2.5 or 2.7.

i think yanks is great with their off the shelf converters like the ones they have listed but for something custom i would try a PI vig, the customer service at yank is horiable and if you go with something custom you will want to talk to them.

anyways, my sugestion.

no slicks, yank 3200HD

slicks, PI vig multi disk, 3200 with as high of a STR as they can set you up with.

i am being somewhat conservative here even, if it were my truck even with the light towing you do i would go 3500.

I've got a Yank SC3000 on order for a 4L80E,Mike said it was a custom converter he's done for Lingenfelter and some GM prototypes,3000 stall with a 2.3 str,if I ever get it I 'll post the results.Mike said that it really helped the Linginfelter twin turbo 427s spool up quick.
