What torque converter are you going to buy that will hold 1000+ hp? I only have a little over 800 and mine was like $1100. TH400 with a manual valve body, brake, pro mod drum, roller bearing conversion, ultra bell, and everything else can cost way over $2000 to build by itself.

But I am sure some dirt bag in a magazine you read dug one out of a hole in a junkyard in west virginia then threw some new frictions in it and now it is in a car that goes 8's for under $100 and a bag of Skittles.
