Default Pulled my transmission to day

Hi i pulled my transmission to day happy me.
she is at the shop ready to be pulled apart.

The resin for all this funis the torque converter, locking up at start up and stalling the engine in drive.

I know it needs a full rebuild 100,000 on a 46re
200,000 on the truck

other then the soft parts ie. clutches bands seals and passable the overdrive drum. witch will come in the rebuild kit the shop tells me i should go with.
what torque converter should i go with there are meany lock up RPMs i know but witch one would you go with.

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...m=250204020623

i need some suggestions should i get it??? i have been looking around the site every thing i see is high stall. this one is STAGE 2 HD LOW STALL ,TOWING HIGH PERFORMANCE,,, is this BS or something i should go with.

i do a lot of highway driving with no load in the truck.
but when i do need to haul a load it is heavy steel, car trailer, construction tools.

i am at a lose hear and hope you would help

towing and 4 wheeling = low stall speed.
racing and hauling *** = high stall speed.
