Transmission Rebuilt... so many choices! help!
OK guys, fixing to rebuild my tranny. I've got my rebuild kit from Oregon performance and they kindly swapped out my bands for kevlar! I ordered the Sonnax cure kit, solenoids, manual, and my last purchase I think will be the torque converter. Has anyone ever put a heavy duty converter in? What about with modified stall? What brand and what options do I have? I really want to try yo get this as close to bulletproof as possible. Going to try the rebuild myself but am ordering parts a little at a time so I can do it right the first time. I'm not going to re build the pump, just swap out seals and prints. I need suggestions please. If I'm getting this deep I want to do things right the first time... anybody here a transmission specialist? Would love to talk to you on the phone with some questions... but want suggestions from other guys as far as what other parts I should replace...

I looked into a torque converter but couldn't find an option in my price range. You can up the stall by going to one for a 4.6l. Depending on what you are looking for this May or may not be a good idea. If you intend to race the truck and did a cam swap this is smart. But if you tow you need a lower stall. Higher stall equals more slip equals heat. Be careful there are not many options available for the 4r75e.
