I run a pro style transbrake in my Super Gas/Street car for 20+ years, and the advantages are consistency and reaction time. The stall rate of the converter you choose has more to do with the power band of your engine combination. Yes, it is important to have a race-built transmission and driveline that will withstand your plans for the car if your are going to do high RPM launches with either footbrake or transbrake - also keep in mind if you have a TH400, that the shift pattern will be reverse with a transbrake.
