Couple of questions about my 1973 340.

So just as a follow-up, I found a local torque converter builder that is going to make me the right converter for the motor. He is going to up the stall speed to 2200 and rebalance the converter to the right specs for $225

I also found in the box of all of the parts from my dad's place, the original thermoquad that seems to be in good shape so I'm going to rebuild and run that.
