4L60e’s don’t need a shift kit, you might as well just save your money. If you are having it built, sure, but otherwise just run it until it fails. (which it will eventually)

LS1 motors LOVE a really high stall. If you go with a 2800-3200 it will do the job, but you will always wish you went bigger. I made that mistake… TCI Street Fighter, I only paid $250 shipped though.

My converter isn’t loose at all. My only complaint is the weak lock-up clutch… and that its for a 4L60e. :lol

I don’t know what the brand was that was in my car, but it was a 3800 and was way too loose for me to enjoy driving around on the street. Based on the quality of the other speed parts on the car I would say it was probably the cheapest thing the guy could get. If I were going to go with a bigger converter again I definetly wouldn’t do more the 3200, but I also use the car as a summer daily.
