A 3200 stall would be big enough for the 228r but, imo a 3600 would be ideal for the torquer v2. With all the supporting mods and heads i'm sure the v2 would get you 400rwhp. I would go with the 228r with the setup you have listed.

The 3200 stall coupled with the 228r should have great driveability. The 3.73 gear you are running will also help make that setup feel stockish. You will know you have the stall though when you put it to the floor.

You definitely want to get new springs,rods and timing chain. I'm pretty sure you can run your stock rockers but, why not upgrade them. I would do it.
