I have a TH350 (i think just the shifter linkage is bad) and i'm going to possible rebuild it (if it needs it) and i would like to put in a new torque convertor, and a shift kit, because the stock 1.76 powerglide just ISN'T cutting it. I was going to go with a built 700R4 w/a hydraulic lockup conversion, a 2800stall , and a stage 2 shift kit.

I was looking at B&M convertors and they are saying i need 265+ degree cam etc and 3.00 gears or higher and at least 10:1.1 compession etc.

My question
I have a 70 nova with a rebuilt 80-85' 305 v8, and a stock TH350. I will be putting a shift kit in it and would like to add a new convertor too, so what would be my best bet? It's a daily driver, and it goes over 2k miles a month. I want something street/strip friendly. The TH350 in it's stock form will be a big improvement over the Powerglide, but my old torque convetor got thrown away so i figure i'll cough up the extra few bills to get a name brand higher stall one. Any suggestions?
