Even for a near stock car, if the converter isn't efficient at all, it will transmit less of the engine's actual power to the wheels, which will negate the help off the line that the few hundred extra RPM of stall speed will give you.

You might see some improvement, but I wouldn't think that it's worth spending $160ish and the time it takes to swap a converter on.
