Question torque converter

[IDSTROKER]

I'am thinking of putting in a bts torque converter and valve body and leaving the rest of the tranny stock. Is this a good idea or bad i can fill the converter slip when i start pulling the hills with my trailer on but if i kickoff the od it will go away. I need some in put on this. 2003 F350 with 7.3

the BTS valve body is the shift kit.

when you talk to brian make SURE that you tell him which chip and tunes you have. he will build the valve body to accommodate the programming of the chip settings.
