The Vigilante Torque Converter Is Very Popular!
But very pricey as well. B&M Sells them for your type of tranny as well, and are a lot less expensive. I've been wanting to get one from SLP, they're inexpensive and have a slightly higher stall, which doesnt sacrifice much drivability. Just make sure you get one that retains the lock-up feature an is compatible with your 4L60-E Transmission.1996 Arctic White Z28, A4, K&N CAI, TByrne MAF ends, BBK Twin-52mm TB, TB Bypass, SLP 1 3/4" Shorties, Richmond 3.42's, Dynomax Bullet Muffler W/Turn Down, BMR Adj.

WHy are you changing your torque convertor? If your looing for higher stahl, never buy one "out of the box". Have it made custom. It not as expensive as the B@M or others and the stahl speed you request will actually be correct. You cannot build a mass produced convertor with a prdetermined stahl for multiple vehicles. Stahl speed MUST be tailored to the individual car.96 WS6 Formula: Ram Air, 383 Stroker, Ported LT4 Heads and Manifold, 1.6 Crane Rollers, 58MM T.B., AS&M Headers, Borla Exhaust, Meziere Elec.
