Goerend Torque Converter Which One?

Ok I want to get a tc and I was doing some research on this. I am going to go with a 3 disk but not sure which one.
I did talk to dave about my issue and he said use a 15 blade or a 900/400.

Here is my truck

1. 95 suburban
2. 373
3. 265/75/16 tires
4. will be towing from time to time 6000 pounds

I am looking for something that will go from the line and work good though the rpm.

anyone know
thanks Joe

Any of his converters would be good, but Dave should be able to reccomend to you which one you need. All of them are head over heels over stock.

What kind of hp/tq are you looking to put out?
Dave built me a 300/800 for my truck. So far so good, little tight coming off the line, but I love it.
What about a valve body and other upgrades?
6000 lbs. My empty trailer weighs 5000, so that won't be a problem, unless your axles aren't up to the task.

Where in PA are you?
