Default Converter pros help me pick a good converter!

Thinking of putting a th-350 in the car. As of right now it's just that a thought. Currently 6sp and i like it, just like dig racing, the 6sp works but not like an auto lol. It will be a reverse manual. Car weighs around 3300 pounds. 4.10 gear, fab 9'. Pretty much full susp. My concern is the car has very good mph at the track and i don't wanna lose that or any top end v. the 6sp on the street. I am pretty good at choosing verters but maybe peeps can chime in w/ their weight set-ups, times etc. Even 6sp. guys who have converted. I am not one of those guys who can't drive their 6sp either, so keep that in mind. I do NOT CARE how big it is lol. Gonna have a good cooler and is a weekend toy. I spin the motor 7k. Pretty sure it's at least gonna be around a 4200 prolly bigger lol. Let's see some th350's converter's and what they are doing! Sponcers chime in! Car is NA and prolly won't see a bottle for some time, the verter can always be changed at that time. I know ptc, yank, etc. can get me goin on one w/ all the details. But i wanna see real world experience as well!
Thanks guys,
Chris
