Default F1D and the rest?

This is for my red car in my sig. Engine is a 383, forged bottom end. 9.5:1 cr. I've decided on the F1D. Also FMIC. Its a street/strip car and basically all the tracks here in NC are 1/8 mile for the most part. From what I've read the F1D really shines in the low/mid range. Which should work great at the track. Fuel system will be Lonnies Double Pumper, FICS 1300cc. I'm gonna go with a Yank Pro Series. Not sure on stall speed. Possibly 3400?? My other decision I need to make is gear. Its a Moser 9 inch with 3:70 gear currently. Way too low. Thinking maybe a 3:08 or 3:23??

Engine has Bobs Blower cam. 243 heads done by Mallet Cars with 67cc chambers. Scat forged crank, Eagle rods, Wiseco -15cc pistons, etc, etc.

Would just like to know what you guys think as far as stall speed and my gear ratio? I have the blower decision made. TIA.

Get with whatever converter company you want to use and let them spec the stator based on what you tell them for the combo and your goals. Dusty Bradford with PTC is pretty damn good at this if you're looking for a recommendation, but there are a ton of good converter companies out there so you really have a good number of choices.

I went with Circle D for my last converter using their LS Pro series converter.
Great guys, awesome support, looks like a very nice piece.
I'll let you know how it works out later this summer.
