Default Too much stall?

I have a BTE convertor sitting on my shelf doing nothing. I know I will not use it for quite some time if I don't put it in my '68 Nova.
My question is:
Do you think the stall is too much for the street. The convertor flashed around 3700 rpms, it is a BTE 300-802 Street/Strip.

Motor is bbc with KB .030 flat tops, stock rods, stock crank, Big Mother Thumper cam, MSD 6ALN. All new, never fired.

Tranny is th400.

Vintage Air.

Rear end is a dog right now, 10 bolt pegleg with around .373.
I intend on changing it to either 12 bolt or 9" with around the same gears, limited slip.

Any thoughts and opinions will be greatly appreciated.
