Default 5.3 turbo build stall size

Finally selling my motor out of my 01 formula
Gonna go with the popular 5.3 setup with either T70 or t76 Goal is gonna be 500rwhp..my car currently has 4k stall with stock 3.23 gears.I've always loved my bigger stall even as my daily driver I've never complained about it..question is with my goals is my stall goin to match up well or should I be looking for new stall

I would keep what you have and see how it works. Then decide to restall(and you have data on how it acts to give to the converter company) or start over.

I would also try it first. I love my Yank PY3600 but next time I will be going Circle D to be able to lock up the converter at the track and dyno.
