unsure on what converter

[CRAWLEN]

so im new to the duramax world, so im out of my element here.

got a lbz with stock charger. with liftpump,headstuds,big tunes,aftermarket manifolds and up pipes.
currently getting ready for a suncost gmax6 RI 3 trans build. but unsure on what converter.

also running 4.11 diff ratios on 35s. (at aprox 1600rpm on 6th i get 100 kmph) sorry about metric im form the land of down under.

now what its used for is dailying,4wding bit of mild towing nothing as heavy as you guys, and a bit of racing.

in the future i want to go more power either twin turbos or bigger single.
i believe i would be better off getting a converter to suit stock then a different one when i go bigger. unless there is a converter that suits my needs.

i have been recommended from suncoast a 1074 with stall speed 2300.
but also been told i would a 1054 would be good. so i guess with everything i have just explained whats the best converter for me ?

any help is much appreciated due to living in Australia there is pretty much no modifying going on down here.

any specs on said converter? stall speed, how it drives all that?

im all for said limitless but being in Australia it will be hard to get. and i cant find them online

Where about you from(near brisbane)? I might have some crates going that way....

 

[CRAWLEN]

i live in perth. so pretty much other side of Australia.

but like i was asking any info on the converter or even anything similar

Bud, ask your vendor in Aus if they'd be willing to ship the converter to crawlen from BB to Perth on his dime.

 

[Budneeds2beers]

Bac, no vendor. Just after a race coming up i could slip it into a crate or connex and label it as test parts... (that way you dont have to pay the queens tax) but i could ask if they can ship it to him on his dime? Crawlen you cool with that?

 

[CRAWLEN]

guess i would need to talk to evan to get a price then and talk to him about this converter and go from there. its just hard for me to lash out for a converter i know nothing about, as if it doesn't drive well its not like i can sell it easy.

anyone have evans email ?

and bud, what time frame would you be looking at for wanting to send it off
