    Get on the phone to a reputable converter supplier (Dominator, Pro converters etc.) and give them all the specs on your set-up. They will work out exactly the right stall speed required to get the most out of it.

    Stall speed is also application dependant. It would probably pay to sort out the engine first and then get a converter to suit
