V6 to V8 Torque Converter Compatability

Hello, we need to know if we can take the torque converter from a 60 deg. V6 transmission and install it into a 700-R4 for a V8 application in order to gain more stall speed.

Are they compatible in the way of spline counts. It will be a moderate horsepower application with decent torque.

you'll have to see if you have a 27 spline or 30 spline transmission first, and see if you have a eccc(lock up).
