TEA Stage 3 PI Heads
VT Engines N/A Stage 2 Cams
TransGo Shift Kit
3.73 gear
long tube hooker headers
BBK H pipe
SLp kit back
75mm BBk throttle
BBK ram air

I went with a 2800 West Coast Racing Converter on my 03 auto.

Here's some more information about West Coast and what is involved in choosing a converter that fits your budget and goals.

you do not need a triple disc. definately keep the stall speed above 3K at the least and get a good tranny cooler with this upgrade.
I would also get rid of the shift kit and just put in a better valvebody (not necessary).
