I have a 350 with around 350HP. My cam calls for around a 2500 stall. I was looking at a B&M Hole shot http://store.summitracing.com/partdetail.asp?autofilter=1&part=BMM%2D20412&N=115&autoview=sku or the Hughes converter http://store.summitracing.com/partdetail.asp?autofilter=1&part=HUP%2DGM25&N=115&autoview=sku I'm not using the car to go to the track, just a nice driver. What would you get?

That converter would be for best performance at the track. If you want it as a daily driver a 2000 may be better, you want your cruise RPM above your stall to keep from roasting the tranny due to all the heat from slipping. IMO

Also I like Hughes better than B&M, and there are others too.


Anyone else ?

Well it's a weekend driver. I could deal with the 2500. I like the price of hughes too. Found it cheaper here. http://www.paceparts.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWPROD&ProdID=27082 Not bad price.
