Question What size stall??

A 351w with a edelbrock top-end kit makes 350lbs of torque right at 2500 RPM.....what size stall do I need. Oh it goes with a C-4 trans.

cam specs are:
<TABLE border=2><TBODY><TR><TD>Operating Range</TD><TD>1500-6500 RPM</TD></TR><TR><TD>Duration Advertised</TD><TD>290° Intake/300° Exhaust</TD></TR><TR><TD>Duration @ .050''</TD><TD>224° Intake/234° Exhaust</TD></TR><TR><TD>Lift @ Valve</TD><TD>.496'' Intake/.520'' Exhaust</TD></TR><TR><TD>Lift @ Cam</TD><TD>.310'' Intake/.325'' Exhaust</TD></TR><TR><TD>Lobe Separation Angle</TD><TD>110°</TD></TR><TR><TD>Intake Centerline</TD><TD>106°</TD></TR><TR><TD>Intake Timing @ .050"</TD><TD> Open 6° BTDC

You going to drag race or tow livestock trailers?

These folks know more than me.

Gear ratio, tire size, first gear ratio (if not stock), compression ratio and how you intend to drive this. Will it see any street use?
Lots of converter is fun, but creates a bunch of heat, and since they will slip during freeway use if you do not have enough gear, you may not want to go too much above stock.
A stock converter can flash well over the 2500 rpm. (though maybe not with this mild combo) Looks like your mill wants to start making power just off idle, and just glancing at the cam specs, i would say you are the proud owner of a new Performaer RPM series cam. A nice reasonable cam for street use. Could use a loose converter and some steeper than stock gears to help it out, and could be fun in a light car for drag racing, but a heavy car with not so much gear that sees highway, or a bunch of street use, may be better of closer to stock.
