Daily driver? What kind of tires on the rear? Street, drag radials, slicks? Do you drag race a little or a lot? The answers to these questions will decide what stall speed you're going to be happy with. I can tell you up front that with your 3.73 gears, you'll want a 3500+ converter. Don't bother with anything smaller.

With street tires and your 3.73 gears, I'd suggest the Yank SY3500. It hits fairly softly off the line so your 60' times won't totally suck. If you're definitely going to switch to drag radials, you could go with the SY3500 or another great choice would be the Yank SS3600.
