I think that 10123 would be someones part number. Whose I don't know. It appears to be the 12" converter as it has the small ring gear. Stall wise, I would think because it's the large converter, probably in the 2200-2400 range, but really hard to tell.
 
SHS could be the company or the designation of "street high stall"
The case is unique.
It's not the typical stock convertor case that's inerds are cut for higher stall

Just a guess 'nothing that huge' is worth messin' with if you are looking for more stall RPM

Looks like typical 12" Mopar converter to me. Nothing unique about it at all.
 
Stock/factory cases are smooth.
That's very true. However, being a modified HIGH STALL, it would not be uncommon to find the builder using the pump from either a GM or FORD converter to get the stall they were looking for. Doing the exchange of pump covers is a quicker than re-bending the vanes inside the pump. It's a cheap and dirty way of increasing stall.

Sounds like a good explanation.
Many guys still bend and braze with the factory case.

The difference is in the price. Quality costs. Also, on Chrysler converter pumps, most are already furnace brazed in stock form.
Problem with a used converter, you really don't know what it's like internally. Maybe good, maybe not. It's always been my opinion for what it's worth, used converters make good cores and door stops.
