Here is a video about us. It is from a mustang guy, but it is about our converters in general. Enjoy.

nice vid, was curious how the converter was welded together pretty cool process.

also im available to come sweep floors if i can eventually own it!! . None of my business but just curious is this a family business that was passed down? Its always cool to see the evolution of a company being passed down as technology progresses and the changes in products and design. Either way lovin my 4c converter. Just got a 1.59 60' out of it this weekend.

We have an extra broom, see you tomorrow? LOL. Yes it is a family business, my dad started it in 76. I really love what we do, easy to get up in the morning. Great 60' - glad we could "Move You"

Loving the Cicrle D in the Z28 i just bought. I thought that a 4000 stall was a bit big for my car, so i called the shop, and i must say, Chris was very friendly and knowledgable. He had no problem spending time explaining things to me, even though i fully explained to him that i had not bought the converter, but he stood behind his product, and set me at ease. I am becoming more and more comfortable with the big stall, and it does wake the car up, compared to other auto LS cars i have driven or riden in. I would not hesitate to buy from these guys in the future.

I really liked seeing the machine work and what not. Looks like a nice operation. Keep up the great work Chris.

Great video... makes me even more confident in the converter I purchased, and frequently enjoy, from you guys!

My car is a hefty 3900lbs race weight and I still consistantly pull 1.55 60's. Even drives nice on the street despite being a 4000+ stall.
