Default tranny/converter shot need help !!!

My mechanic just informed me that my tranny and tourque converter are shot. I might as well get a higher stall converter since I have to replace it anyways. Fuel economy is important to me (yes I know it's a mustang and I shouldn't!!) I called tci and they recommended a 1800 stall lock-up and pi recommended a 2600 lock-up. The local guy I deal with said no higher than 1800. If anyone has any experiance with this can you please chime in.

1) recommended stall speed for daily driver with some sort of fuel economy in mind

2) does the computer need a special tune?

Thank you for your input!!!!

2600 is fine.. I ordered one for mine and my buddy uses one and his is awesome and doesnt affect DD drivability at all..I dont believe he needed to have a tune
