hi just wounding what would be the best high stall converter for a na vl for burnout and drag. i was thinking 4000rpm to a 5000rpm with a stage 2 or 3 shift kit (will be getting it turboed later)

Your better off speaking to a convertor builder mate,if you want to make any performance gains from it then it will need to be built off the specs of your motor.
