How to calculate for the correct stall?
 
Cany anyone explain in lamens terms how to go about choosing the correct stall converter for my particular setup? I have read on line and looked at different graphs and calculators but i am just not getting it...:(.....I am in the process of ordering a new reman. transmission for my 95 TA but i am at a loss. The builder suggested a 2800 stall but after reading many different threads i just want to be sure i choose wisely. My current setup is:

2:73 gears (Probably going to swap to 3:73)
245/45/16 tires
Long tubes with no cats into a catback magnaflo
Rebuilt true lt4 with lt4 hot cam and 1:6 RR's (if that makes any difference)
4l60e (NEW rebuilt coming)

here's a thread I posted in about a year and a half ago,much similarity.
Sounds like you're building for power and then you're gonna need to get that power to the pavement. Torque convertor,suspension,gears.

What a(your) builder recommends and what performance you want to attain are generally two totally different aspects. Most builders do generally recommend 2400-2800 because they're afraid to go big. Do a Yank SS3600(or whatever the model might be for a LT1(4)(or CircleD equivalent) and don't look back. After a while you'll be thinking 'should've done 4000'.
