Need a turbo converter for a glide which should I get???

Any recommendations on a good converter thats not to expensive. Here is my setup.

89 Mustang notch should weight around 2600 lbs
Powerglide tranny
306 with a 70mm turbo
327 gears

Ive been looking online but dont know what brand ect I should go with. I am thinking a 10 inch converter.

Whatever you get, make sure whoever stalls it knows you're at elevation.

Try edge racing converters. They will custom tailor it to your combo. They have all kinds of different options as to how you want it built. I had one and it worked damn good and it was very fair priced.
