Default getting a fuddle, what stall? str?

Getting a torque converter for my next mod. Just wondering what stall I should go with. The car is NOT a daily driver and see's mostly track on the weekends. It is a full bolt-on car with a 3.23 rear and i sport m/t drag radials at the track which are making me bog real bad right now, street tires make me spin. A cam will follow the next month after the converter and I have narrowed it down to either the tr224/227, the fm7224/230, or the speed inc sc224/232. The car is a future blower car but I will change the stall when that time comes, for now I want the best stall for my mods and cam. I emailed fuddle allready but they havent emailed me back yet so I thought Id get some other opinions.

Again the car is not a daily driver so its ok for the car to be a little more track friendly than street friendly, but I still would like to be able to drive it somewhat close to normal on the streets.

I figured maybe a 3800-4000 stall but am unsure of the str.

any help is appreciated.

I would go Yank 4000. TCI and fuddle are also good. If your going to the track 3-4 times a month and the car is just for speed, i would go 4400 yank or TCI. I wouldnt think about anything under 4k unless its a vig3800,they stall higher than advertised

I have a TCI3500 and love it,its not a daily driver but its my main tranportation. My beaters keep blowing up

If you're running sticky tires, I'd say around 2.5 str.
