Oops, sorry about the stock comment (I was zonked from all this stupid flipflopping weather). Apart from cam and heads, we're _similar_ in setup.
In that case, my friend, you should definatley go with a 3000 stall since it does wonders for me! With nonlockup, you will have 2-300 rpms higher in 3rd and 4rth but your car will have torque multiplication in all gears (just feels like an extra 50 ft lbs of torque in 3rd and 4rth). You'll lose 1-2 mpg but you'll be too busy passing people on the highway and yelling "weeee!" to notice. I do have a lockup and you can feel the CLUNK when the trans locks up in OD. Doesnt feel that responsive all of a sudden. I think the unresponsiveness of the highway gear could be greatly alleviated with nonlockup. Your stock converter is lockup. It will feel like it does now. If $$$ doesnt matter, go non lockup. Have fun! Pete
