Torque converter recommendations

I just picked up an overdrive transmission for my truck and it currently has 3.07 gears in the rear end. So I'll need a torque converter that has a pretty low stall or it will be slipping a bit whenever it's in overdrive. Any recommendations for a low stall that is cheaper. I have already blown my budget on this thing.

I don't have an Auto with OD yet...have one in the shop for a future conversion. But from what I have read and seen I don't think your going to get a cheap low stall converter, anything decent that will live for a reasonable amount of time is going to cost you a bit of coin.

TC is correct, I have a Goerend low stall in my A518 and it's been great for 3 years now.
