ok guys ive been having some trouble with advice from others.mmmkay.

ive been looking around for a new torque converter. when i put this motor and trans in (AOD) it was a stock motor with a slightly built trans. the guy that had it before me, i think he said he pretty much bought everything from baumann that could be except the servo. it shifts pretty hard. sooo. he said it had a 2200 stall in it...but with a stock motor it flashed around 1600. but of course this was in a 4000 lb truck ok. well i built the motor, and my stall went away, i mean there is literally NO stall anymore. so i need help in finding one and picking it out, but at the same time not break the bank ok. ive had about 4 people say anything from 2k up to 3500. havent gotten a same answer anywhere yet.

mods if needed,
mac cai, 77mm maf, 65mm tb, gt-40 upper and lower, gt-40 heads with .020 knocked off and 1.6 rr's. e-cam and hooker LT's. ive 3.73s out back. this is a daily driven truck too, so it dont need to be huge or nothing. OH and this is in a bronco 2, its around a 4000 lbs, i already have a good trans cooler too.

thanx for any help
