Choosing A Torque Converter

The fun begins. Its like choosing a carb, everyone will have their opinion on what is best but you wont really know what works best for you till you try one (or four) out.

I just went through the whole process with my 360/727 and ended up with a Dynamic 9.5" Race/Street converter. (http://dynamicconverters.com/converters.htm) I ended up with this one after talking to a couple of custom converter builders and they told me what parts and companies to kind of steer clear from.
For a 28" tall tire, 4.10 (maybe 373) gears, 3200lb car, 509 lift cam, shifting at 6k rpm, and seeing both street and race use, this was the one that the guys at Dynamic matched best for me AND matched up with the specs I heard of from the custom guys.

A few notes I can remember:
Stay away from converters that use thrust washers or rebuild it every year or two.
No matter what you can drop atleast 200 rpm from the listed stall as to what it will actually do.
Hughes is OK for a 3000 stall, B&M too, but not for higher stalling.
It is a pay for what you get type deal and I prefer reliable long lasting parts.
