Convertor will depend on engine combination. Stall speed and size.

There are a few companies that come to mind that sell convertors for the 4R70W:
Lentech
DirtyDogRacing
FB Performance Transmissions
BC Automotive

So I have talked to my brother who has has a built motor whipple lightning and a friend that I work with that has a blown 331 with a c4 in it and they both say to get a 3500 stall even though it is my daily driver they said it shouldn't be bad even with the stall being that high any opinions?

Even if the airbags didn't go off they would probably total it because of the Mystic paint as you can't just paint a bumper and have it match the rest of the car. If you do end up calling them and they do total it out just buy it back from them and fix it yourself.

Mystic paint actually matches pretty, rarely does it have to be blended. Might just need to reclear the rest of the car if he does just paint the needed parts.

OP, I have a set of "COBRA" airbags I just removed from my mystic. I changed to charcoal so these are up for sale. I bought them off a guy here on the site a couple of yrs ago actually. I hit a deer in my car and the airbags deployed.

I feel your pain OP

ouch how bad did that deer hurt the car? and im not calling the insurance im a 20 year old kid with a cobra im still paying off and i also have a motorcycle on my insurance so a totaled vehicle is not going to work with my wallet yeah mystic_svt send me a price on the air bags im interested but at the same time i dont know if i want to put air bags back in it because i know they make the delete plates that look like the air bags but there is nothing behind them what do yall think? and also im just going to have the whole car repainted because before i bought the car the idiot that had it before me was drifting with it and hit a pole and put a dent in the quarter panel and im going to fix that while it is apart and i have the passenger fender passenger door and front bumper so im just going to repaint the whole car while im at it i just cant decide on wether to paint it mystic or mystichrome i know some ppl say that its destroying a mystic but at the same time i just wrecked one so thats why im not sure what color to paint it

Who did you buy this car from? It looks very similar to the Mystic that my buddy Andrew used to have. I know when he moved back to houston he was trying to sell it but I haven't talked to him in a very long time so I don't know if he ever sold it. Car was pretty quick I'll tell you that!
