3. About the torque converter—if the one I chose (rated for 3,000–3,200 RPM) isn’t sufficient, would switching to a converter closer to yours (around 4,500 RPM, right?) be necessary to match the Stage 4 cam?
4. Regarding the Johnson lifters, part of the reason for choosing them was to leave room for more power down the road. Another factor is that the price difference between Johnson lifters and GM Performance lifters (including shipping, tariffs, and dealer markups to China) is only about $100. So I originally thought it would be better to go with the more capable option from the start.
Thanks again for taking the time to reply and share your suggestions—I really appreciate it! It’s been great talking with you!

2. Check out Brain tooley Racing or Texas Speed an performance. They sell kits for all that. One stop shopping.
3. You are going to want at least 3600 or 3800 stall for that big of cam.
4. Nothing wrong with over building. I dont know how Johnson is today but they were on back order for a long time.
You should give Ted Jannetty a call or GPI. Or at least email them. Those people have been in the game a LONG time and do this stuff for a living. Will have great suggestions
