Help me pick the best converter
Help me pick the best converter I'd like to get advice from members as to what's the best converter for street/strip 1000HP turbo F-body. It's 383ci with mild cam and TC78 turbo, 4L80E with transbrake is being built (Jake). I think I need lockup in all gears under WOT too.
What would be the best converter?

TC78 is rated at 1000HP
And I'm talking motor HP, obviously. And of course turbo can always be upgraded
Just don't really know how much LS1 block will hold
As of know, Circle D is my favourite, because of votes here and the "dare to lock it" LOL. I just hope he'll have time to answer all my numerous questions and actually build the beast

This got me thinking... My car wasn't really setup after I turbocharged, I sold my T56. Only got few runs in it and very roughly tuned it to 400WHP. Is it possible at all to size converter in this situation, when I haven't really finished the setup yet? I suppose it is more or less common problem when you build your car and change engine setup together with transmission?
