Check out yank converters. Call them up they have all the info. My 3000 stall is very drivable and it flash stalls to 3000 in a heartbeat

Mine was around 600 shipped. Money well spent. I've got a cheapie b&m stall in my el camino and it doesn't go anywhere under 3000 rpm. The yank stall is very driveable!

Yank or CircleD will hook you up.
just call them and let them know your plans.

For most DD NA setup we use the 278mm, very street friendly and affordable converter. But if you are going FI, might want to step up to a billet design. Really depends on your goals with the truck. Give me a call or shoot me an Ask Chris, link in sig. Thanks....

My vote says circle D. I don't have any other experience with the other brands people use on here but i chose circle d because it seemed there were less complaints about them. Definately don't go with the run of the mill verters sold on egay or summit.
