Default turbo torque converters

still piecing this thing together. short block is at the shop now, trying to wrap my head around stall speed. i believe i am going to start with my friends 88mm, but i am not sure its going to meet my goals but it should get me close. I have a 10'' ptc that i plan on sending to them to have restalled for this combo. I know when i have speced converters out before, they ask the usual questions: weight rpm, cam specs head flow etc. Is the only addition to these questions going to be turbo size and expected boost?
thanks guys

Its the same but they need to know its a turbo application . I just used my N/A 10" that i had gotten from Continental converters for my 461ci. using it for my new twin set up and so far it works really well. Chris told me when he spec'd that it was good for a 150 shot . This motor made 660hp N/A . So this turbo set up i have now I've had it to 15 psi probably making 1000hp , and it feels like I can go up in power still .. I tried it just to see how it would do and surprisingly its working real good..
