What stall torque converter to use?

I am in the process of adding a stall converter and 3.73 gears in my car. My mods are in my sig. plus I've added drag radials. I ran a 13.3 best 1/4 mile but my 60 ft. was 1.9 seconds which tells me I need a stall and lower gears ( mine are 3.23's). That being said, what size stall do you guys recommend?

I would go with a 3000 stall. If you have the money get a vigilante.

I word for word agree with chevy. I have a 3000rpm vig. and it's perfect.

I have a Vigi 3200 in my car, bought it used off the boards, paid 415 for it. The 3200 is still super streetable. P.I makes an awesome product.

Thunder racing is here in LA. correct? There is a thunder racing in Baton Rouge, LA. I heard they have got some fast f-bodies that came from them, but they are super proud of their work ($$$'s are high).
