I'm looking to purchase a good converter while I'm in the process of this swap. Will a 2800-3000 or 3000-3200 be too much for a little daily driven 318 with a TF 727? I have a 750 Edelbrock, Weiand Action+Plus Intake, Exhaust, Mallory Ignition, Electric Pump/Fan, and 3.55 gears. I do plan on adding headers, upgrading the cam (XE268 or XE274 Roller), and changing heads.
Call them and see what they recommend. I have one in my car works great and they are very knowledgeable. They used to re-stall it for free one time if you were not happy with it as long as you didn't change your engine specs, so ask about it. Street Racer Series Torque Converter - 9.5" for 727 - TF8
