Well I got wat turned out to be a lentech valve body with OD lock out...but that needs to be wired in. But how much stall on the converter?

Honestly just an off the shelf converter would be fine, I'd say somewhere in the 3000 range and keep the lockup.

Yeah I was looking at something a few hundred above normal stall.

Eh I wouldn't recommend it. And you'd have to use a stock valvebody

Not the transgo one. Baumann really makes the best kit. But you can't use those on aftermarket valvebodies. The valvebody you have should be perfectly fine as is.

well i was going to use it on her stock valve body not the lentech one.
Update...trans seems to be shifting ok. But I keep getting codes 10, 29, 41, 67, 91. I know one O2 sensor might be bad. But the rest not to sure. Also went out for a ride and the car over heated. Had plenty of fluid in the radiator system is fairly new with electric fans. Not sure if the cap is bad.
