Default Torque Converter Failed? / broken pieces inside

Durring a good burnout / launch I was holding at 7000 rpm for about 5 seconds when this extreamly loud metal screech sound occured then no more forward and only a slight amount of reverse.

Pulled the tranny (th350), brand new 1 day old fluid had that horrible burnt smell and the stall was full of metal shavings and chunks. I think the turbines in the stall failed.

If so what are the chances that the transmission will have to be torn down?
I was hoping to flush it out and get a new stall
