Default Torque converter question

Im installing a 2004 gto engine and trans (auto) into a 1970 gto. Would a stock engine benifit from a higher stall?? I dont know what the stock stall is, but let me know what you think. Also who makes a good converter if you guys think I should change it?? Thanks

Stock stall is about 1500-1700. What are your plans with the car. Just cruising, some fun on the street? Any plans on taking it to the strip. A higher stall will definitely make the car more fun to drive, how high is the question. I personally think the Circle D converters rock.

I would suggest our Stage I billet series - Stall code "2C". It is rated 3200-3400 stall. Very nice street manors but make the car a blast to drive. Could go a little higher on stall, but I think the "2C" will compliment your setup.
