A converter is a lot like a cam. Sure, you can ask on the internet, and you'll probably get a few random responses that are somewhat close to what you actually need, but your best bet is to actually go and talk to a professional converter guy. A pro converter dude is going to set you up with exactly what you need.

It may also help a lot if you dyno your car so you know where your power and torque curve are so the pro can better recomend you a converter. Like NikwoaC said, it's like a cam.

well the car isnt put together yet..im kinda building around the trans.. its just a bolt on 302 with full arp bolts... and 150 kit.. some ported heads and trickflow intake.. nothing to fancy for now.. just looking to get some low 11s out of it..

Shoot at e-mail to Alan Brown at [email protected]
Give him all your vehicle details, engine specs, gearing, tire size, and he'll fix you up with a suitable converter.

Yes, he and his products have an excellent reputation on various Mustang forums so I wouldn't hesitate buying from him.
