C6 advice

Hello,
I have a '68 C6 and a mildly built '68 429. I'm getting a torque converter that stalls approx. 300 rpm's higher than stock. What size do I need to get for the '68 429 crank? I know there were two distinct sizes but I can't remmber what was what. I need advice on a tranny rebuild kit, also. I like Summit's rebuild kits but am unsure of what to get. I also want a reverse manual valve body but don't know which one to go with, either. What other things in the tranny should I check out? Pump,etc?
Thanks
PS I cant seem to get the "search" to search. I did a search for "transmission" in the tranny forum and got 0 results.

As for the converter, I think B&M still sells one that is called a Traveler. It is about 300 to 500 over stock and is made for trucks and RV's.
I would also look to B&M for your other tranny needs too.
