Another question... anyone have opinions on what kind of torque/stall converter I should use with my 489? I'm going to put in a 4L80E.  Here are the specs of my cam: http://www.lunatipower.com/camspec.aspx?p=60211

I would like to keep the ability to tow, would a stock one work?

RPM range is 1800-5500 a stock converter should be fine.
