Question torque converter with a cam?

have a 6.0L with a magnacharger.

Thinking about adding a small cam. I haven't decided on my specs but they will be in the area of - 216/222 .58x .58x on 115

Will i need a torque converter with a higher stall? I am looking for a strong street setup with drivability in mind.

thanks.

Those #s look like a good 6.0L Radix cam. I have the yank 2600 with my cam in sig. on a 115lsa and I'm very happy with the performance.

I have the Yank3000 and it's perfect for my daily driver. I can't imagine running anything smaller than that.

The cam size was a perfect match for my stall

i have a 220/222 581lift and a 114lsa. and a 3600 vigilante stall. it works well from a dead stop but from a roll it kills me what can i do to fix it. the stall when installed droped me from a 14.8 to a 14.1 still didn't have a cam installed havent had time to run it.
