Its called a signature, look in your "User CP" to fill it in.

If you can, ride in some cars with bigger stall converters. Generally speaking, the bigger the stall the more fun when you're at the track, but that goes the opposite way for daily driving.

Ah, gotcha. The internet makes it a small world eh?

But yeah, see if you can find some locals with stalled cars, you can't just say one converter fits all applications. Usually you want a stall to match your driveability tolerances and cam selection (actually to your engine's power curve ideally, but sacrifices are sometimes made in street cars). Do you have a bigger cam now, or are you planning on one? Would you mind revving to 2300RPM every time you leave a stoplight? What about 2800? Thats stuff you need to think about. My old 3800 stall revved to 2500 under light'ish throttle from a stoplight, just for reference sake.

Vigs stall higher than advertised - think of it as a 3600.

well i was told that i needed a 3500 stall for my setup but as of right now i do not have a cam but it will prob be bout .595 lift with a 112 lsa so it will have a pretty nice idle but i really dont care bout how it revs at stoplights or anything its not my everyday driver its my weekend warrior lol.
i will not rev the car past 7000RPM ill prob shift at 6500RPM
