First, X2 on the Thank you Stuart. You are a special person to do all that work, probably for free, on your own time, showing you care for people. Would be a good sticky to show the original first post compared to your version.

As for the converter, my guess is that the company does not want to sell a converter that stalls higher than highway cruise rpm, to not have any complaints. You may have to spend more $$$ for a better converter with a higher stall than cruise rpm's.

Also, you stated that at 80 mph, your tach reads 3000 rpm's. I would think the engine would be at 2600-2700. I think your tach may be incorrect. Try this calculator:
