Truck will be a street driven truck. I have a c4 trans and 9 inch with 3:50 gears

What size stall converter should I use?....this engine makes 485 pounds of torque at 3200rpm so I figured I might even be able to use a stock converter
Where is the peak torque for the motor? From the sounds of it, its probably down pretty low. I'd use a mild stall speed converter. Something around 3000 PRM.
