Need help on selecting stall torque converter

2 questions for the experts.
#1 Does the power range of the engine (cam rpm characteristics) have a lot to do with the stall rpm?
#2 Is the final drive ratio and highway cruise rpm also important?


yes and yes...

final drive and cruise rpm goes into intended use. when i ordered mine i told them its mainly a street car and i want it on the tighter side. they receipt even says it. could my combo use a looser converter? most likely if i was going to race it more then i drive it. everything is a compromise though. have it built to what you are doing most and you'll be hapier..:)
