Figured I'd ask here first. I just got my 354 Hemi built and running. I stuffed a reasonably healthy cam in it and am planning running a 46RH w/lockup convertor behind it with a 4.30 rear gear. It will likely be going in a car with a weight of around 3500 pounds. It will mostly be used for cruising with occasional highway trips. I'm thinking it would probably like a 15-1700 stall convertor. Is there such a convertor out there and who would be a good source. Any recommendations would be appreciated.

if it has a lockup clutch, i would go for a 2500-3000 stall speed. my opinion, 17-1800 is too low. just my opinion. your mileage will vary.

Using a healthy cam probably means killing some of the low end torque. Even with a 4:30 gear, a tad more stall will help the driveability. Once it is in lockup the stall is not an issue.
