6L50 torque converter options

Does anyone make a higher stall torque converter for a 6L50 that still retains the lockup feature in 2-6th gear?

The converters at Florida’s Converters don’t say anything about stall speed or lockups.

Give them a call. Their add says they can make what you need... If I saw that right.

Lockup is not controlled by the TC, it's the TCM. If you're not tuning the car for
the high stall, to actually change TCC engagement, and when, then it will be what it is
factory.

Last question on this (but probably not), if I get slightly looser converter would that change my optimum rearend ratio?
Or visa-versa, if I get a lower ratio rearend would that change my converter decision?
I am hoping the torture conv guys can help with this but since you guys have LFX and 6L50 trans your real world input may be even better.
