How do you know a converter is right?
How do you know when its close to being right or wrong?
Right now, mine drops 1000 rpms on the 1-2 shift, and 500 rpms from 2-3. Feels pretty good driving around, spools nice. Will hit the dyno rollers next Sat, track right after for some more data.

1000 on the 1-2 and 500 on the 2-3??? What rpms are you shifting at? Typically they are a lot closer than that unless the shift rpm is different.
The "right" converter is different for what combo you are running....I can tell you this, a procharged car will want a way different converter than a turbo car.
Most converter companies will give you acceptable rpm drop and slip numbers as they see fit. Now some companies will not agree on what is perfect. Getting a converter 100% right for a particular set up can be a daunting task as it can almost always be improved.

Shifting at 6000 during the 1-2 shift. I will be hitting the chassis dyno on sat for a little more data.
