I think thats a good choice for a street car.I run a 2400 stall no name convertor.It's worked great so far.I only wish I had alittle more stall,or more motor.

and I also had the tranny (C4) rebuilt using TCI Master rebuild kit and very pleased with the results.

Do yourself a favor and call Jim Paquet at JPT in Mich. Twice the quality as the BIG NAME Generic convertor's and customer service that's unmatched.... Price wise cheaper!!!! I've been running a 10" 4500 convertor from him on the street and at the track for 7+ years... Don't believe me????? Call Alex at MoneyMaker!!!!!

Tony, please be aware that most big name converters do not actually stall at the speed they are listed at. Many factors come into play when an actual stall speed is determined. I bought 2 different TCI units and neither of them stalled at anywhere near the advertised level behind my 351c. Something in the 2500-3000 range would work well for you and once again, you get what you pay for in trannys and converters...
