You should explore the heavy duty, (think towing package) pickup truck converter for your application. The 700 shuts it's cooling circuit down in lockup.The torque converter clutch stops the turbine action of the converter and the nigh gear and overdrive functions have next to no slippage, so cooling in high and overdrive with the TCC engaged isn't necessary.
You should also make CERTAIN that the throttle cable to the transmission is adjusted properly. It's a great tuning tool for adjusting the shift and lockup points to the way you drive. The 700 offers some latitude if you are careful with the adjustments.
A tighter converter may cost you a little on all out acceleration, but your overall driving experience will be enhanced greatly.
