Torque converter preferences

I have a Circle D 2800 stall on my LS swap. Couldn't be happier. It drives normal until you put your foot into it.

Im using an fti converter.

Looks like they don't build one for the 200R4

Which one do you run? The billet is a bit pricey, so I'm leaning toward the Street Brawler series. Do you run a switch or do you have a controller?

This is the one fti recommended for my application https://www.summitracing.com/parts/fti-esrl3082-27

I am using a tci lock up kit on my trans.

We are using a the Billet FTI with a single clutch. Lockup is presently on a switch. Dead stalls just below 3K and flashes to 3800. Works great and makes you want to just abuse the tires

I put the stock D5 lockup converter that came with my 87 GN th200-4R and I am impressed for a factory converter. It has good pull whatever the rpm range is i'm not sure but I think around 1800-2000 rpm stall? it is strong off the line and locks up at 45 mph and is very smooth when 1:1 ratio.

The factory turbo car D5 is a good converter for a car that makes good torque around 2400 RPM.

For a TPI 350 it should be about perfect for driveability with performance.

I used the PATC(Raptor) base converter 2200-2500 stall. It flashed at 2300 behind my 350 and was under $200. I also had the rated at 400 or 500 hp Oregon Performance 2000-2600, flashed at 2400 stall behind my not even 300 hp 403 converter, came apart inside at the track. The D5 is supposed stall at 2000+, even behind the original 307. I know the factory D9 lower stall flashed at 1900 behind my 350 and 403.
