What size converter?

I'm going with a 9.5 Vigilante one. I have 350 TPI ,3.27's Posi ,52mm TB Ported Plenum AS&M Runners ,Edelbrock Intake, Fast Chip ,1.6 Rollers ,TES's, and Edel Catback. I was looking at maybe a 2700 2800 ?

Whats the powerband of your cam?What RPM does it come in?If you have a cam with a decent powerband I think you will like the 2800 stall.

Good choice of converter brand, best one out there.
I would still do the 2800 stall with the Vigilante despite having the stock cam.
I had a 2800 Vigilante in my 92 Z which had a TPI 355ci with a hydraulic cam (non-roller) 210 dur .440/.454 lift with basically stock heads, headers, exhaust, TB, baseplate, runners, etc..
and it was perfect.
It's a good time to put a trans cooler in if you don't already have one.
If you're worried about the stall being too much, then go
with a 2600.

Why don't you ask P.I., since they will be making it for you. They will know what stall speed you really need, because there is nothing more annoying than too much stall (which I think you are asking for, JMO).
