Torque Converter Question

i just ran for the first time this year with the stroker and i got the same times as i did with just the 350. I was wondering if my torque converter was the problem. I have a 2900 stall. My Camshaft has a duration of 287 lift of .520 and lobe separation of 112. The rear gears in my car are 3.73. I was also wondering if different gears would benefit me in the quarter mile. I still want it to be good on the street, but i really want good times at the track. Any help would be wonderful
