I just installed a B&M contorller. I got mine fromEbay for $160 after using a 10% off coupon.
 
It works real good with my setup, BTO Trans install. I have it set to lock the converter when I hit 43mph and it disengages when I slow down to 40mph. I use to have to either downshift or turn off the lock-up converter if I slowed down and tried to speed back up again. If I didn't, the motor would chug or ping until the trans downshifted or I got the speed back up to above 40mph.
 
It is a little pricey but I think it was worth it.

The nice thing about this setup is you can adjust it to what your needs are by a turn of th dial. It operates off a sensor that attaches to the speedo cable without any mods.
