Installing New Torque Converter
I will be swapping the torque converter in my 1989 Iroc Z 350TPI from stock to a lockup 2600 summit converter.
Is there anything extra I should do other than the usual stuff? Should I take the transmission to a shop and have them put a new front seal in it or anything like that?
Thanks!

Agreed, it's worth the effort to do it now instead of having to re-repull at a later date.
Also, I would look into installing a transmission cooler to deal with the higher stall.
