What gears do you have, and what will you be using the car for? Daily driver, or mostly cruising with trips to the drags?

how do you wanna use the car? if you plan to daily drive it i would go with a moderate stall, 2600-2800, jsut because it is easier to live with in traffic
i have a 3400-3600 here that would wake your car right up if you wanna drive a bit bigger stall and get lots more performance out of it
