Default torque convertor (stall selection??)

Here's my dilema (lol) well one of them anyway. I have a 4R70W EOD transmission which I'm putting in my car with the Baumann Engineering controller. The ratios in the trany are 1st-2.84, 2nd-1.55, 3rd-1, 4th-0.70. I plan on putting 3.55's or 3.73's in my rear-end with 16" tires. The engine is a stroked 351W to 408 with a 224/234 @112 duration camshaft @0.050 lift. How the .... does one figure out what amount of stall to get on the convertor? I understand the gearing in the trany and rear-end but the I have heard the stall has a lot to do with the camshaft too. Anyone know exactly the connection here and how to figure it out? I'd like to know before I just go order one from a transmission shop. Thanks in advance.

Locking or none locking. What is your HP peek RPM with your cam?

I would order a custom one from edge. Let him know your exact combo and he'll built one that's made specifically for your car .
