I am running pretty much the same combo with a little more HP. Stock GN TC here with a 1900-2100 stall. Lockup is the key if you are cruising the car at all and a higher stall if you are spending more time at the track
I agree ^^^, a stock D5 converter from a GN/T-Type would work well

I recommend using torque converter part number 21-25L. This is our Street Master series 12" converter, and features an advertised stall speed rating of 2,500 RPM. This converter will provide 2,100 - 2,200 RPM of actual stall speed with your application. This converter also retains the lock-up feature, which will help maximize your fuel efficiency at cruising speeds. MR.com member discounts are available.
