Default What converter shouldi use?

Im having a 4l60e built for my 5.3 swap in my blazer and i need to choose a converter and i have no idea where to start... i have a 5.3 with a ls6 cam and a custom tune. the truck weighs 6,500lbs. it will be used mainly for daily driving and off roading and towing every once and a while (if ever)

what type of converter should i get? what stall speed do i need?

Yes, I think something in the low 2400 range will be nice. Our 300mm setup will work well with your weight and intended usage. Shoot me an Ask Chris with all your specs and be glad to help further.
