I have talked to a couple companies now. Although they probably have a superior product, I can't justify a $900 converter in a transmission I'm building myself. $400-$550 is what I have in mind.

"Car" is a Ram 50 truck. I built the engine. Has smog heads from Mccandless, shaved .020, 2.02/1.60 stainless valves, pocket porting. Air gap intake, speed pro flat tops, mopar .484 cam (probably go bigger soon), edelbrock carb, shorty headers. TCI kit going into the trans next week.

Weight is approx 3000. (Probably end up less than that). Narrowed 8-3/4 rear, putting a 4:30 or 4:56 gear in. Has 29x18.5 Hoosiers and a 4 link rear.

It will go to the strip 5 or so weekends each year. I will cruise town with it too. Heck, I'll drive the damn thing to work for the fun of it.
