building a TH350 for a 4x4

I am getting ready to replace my TH350 with a better one. I want one that shifts firm, and takes off good. Right now the one I have is sluggish it don't feel like it's slipping but it sure don't take off very good.

The transmission I am replacing it with was rebuilt in 99 and the vehicle it was in it shifted good and wasn't nearly as sluggish as mine so I want to freshin it up and put a shift kit in it along with a good torque converter.

Please suggest what torque converter I should go with and what stall RPM, the one I have now is a summit 2K and it's a dog. Should I go with a lower stall?

To make a long story short my Blazer has a new TBI Engine with iron L98 Heads a Comp Cam headers and it don't rip nearly as hard as it should due to a soggy transmission. I am open to any suggestions on getting this resolved

Oh yeah the K5 will have 3.73's and 33" tires
