Ready to replace bearings and install cam......What's a good spec??

[PKRWUD]

My engine builder and some buddies think that I should get the smaller torque convertor (for driveability purposes on the street) but I want to your opinion.

FYI- A smaller torque convertor has a higher stall speed. A bigger torque convertor has a lower stall speed.

If this was your daily driver and grocery getter, I would say go with a lower stall convertor, then smack you for putting so much into a daily driver. But, if this is your "play" car, your "Weekend Warrior", then I would go with the cam I suggested above. It will still be driveable on the street, but it will scream on the track. I feel that with the new cam, you will be getting the most out of the work you have already done. There's not a huge difference between the cams, just enough to feed what you've already got. It will idle a bit rougher, but so what? Just don't set any beverages on the hood.

Take care,
-Chris
