It is pretty much the consensus of the forum that a performance stall and towing do not mix. You will have to go with a very mild stall if you choose to do anything over stock. I believe you may want to look @ the Trailblazer stall. Some guys here are using it. From what people say it stalls higher and is looser behind a 5.3 than a TB I6. So, you may not even have an option there either, but that is what first pops out in my head.

 

The Yank TT3000 is an 11" converter, actually 278mm, and is rated at being able to tow stock capacity. Check them out at converter.cc/trucks_and_suvs.htm Im not sure what Vigalante has to offer in larger converters, but they are excellent from what I hear. I have a friend with the TT3000, and it offers excellent performance, it will flash stall to atleast 3000 rpm in an extended cab truck. If you feel that the 3000 may be too much for you, consider the TT2600, it's still a smaller and lighter converter than stock. The Yank TT2400 is only a restalled stock converter, i wouldnt expect great performance gains from it.

 

I've been told that the Yank 2600 was easier to tow with compared to stock. The higher STR allows you to use less pedal to get the weight moving.

I've heard the Yank 3000 is pretty much the same, but when locking and unlocking, it's a large 'jump' in rpm's - much like shifting a gear. I'm not crazy about that aspect of this.

If you run some searches on the two, you'll be busy reading this stuff for DAYS.
