What other mods do you have? Are you trying to match a cam or just get off the line quicker?

Most are around a 3000 stall give or take a few hundred. The higher, usually the looser and less efficient unless at WOT. For towing I'd go a little lower, or get as tight of a verter as you can get.

You're gonna need to strengthen up that transmission. Drag racing with 24's is like drag racing while pulling a trailer.

I've got a 2600 stall in my truck and I also tow occasionally. I don't notice any issues when moving forward; where I really notice the stall is in reverse. It seems almost like a rubber band effect - you step on the gas and it doesn't move for a few seconds, then it moves a little. By then you've let off the gas so it stops moving. It is just difficult to balance the move/no-move when in reverse.

Most towing-dedicated applications actually go to a lower-stall converter, which I'm sure you are already aware of.

go with the base model Circle D. It'll be enough for you.
