I personally would go with Coan. I know lots of guys that run them behind big inch BBC's and Mopars with no issues.
As for converter, I would recomend talking to Craig at Coan Transmissions.
I used a Neal Chance converter previously and the lockup clutch came apart in no time at all. Most people have great luck with them, not me. I wouldnt use one in anything ever again.

It was the first one that he had ever heard of that came apart
. He didn't even want to give me another one to try. He just refunded my money and I switched the converter to a custom Coan setup. All issues were gone, and works like a champ.My race car is getting a custom 8" Coan converter. Ordering it this weekend at the World Drag Expo in Chicago.

Coan, I know they have models for your level.
A bunch of us around here use them, high 6's, lo 7's.
I usually talk to Jason, when he's not racing.
