torque converters???

I don't know a whole lot about torque converters....is there any reason I shouldn't consider buying a used one if I came across one??
Also, can anyone recommend a good stall range for me?? not sure what factors come into play so here are my specs:
9.0:1 289
windsor jr. heads
comp cams 270s: 224 degrees duration, .499" lift
weiand stealth intake/600 vacuum secondary holley
1.5" primary shorty headers

stock '66 c4 with cheetah manual/automatic valve body

2.8:1 8" rear

It's a street driven car...i'm just looking for better low-end response.

sorry the post is so long...but i'm definitely a beginner when it comes to transmissions
