Default i need a sponsor!

This crap is getting expensive. Is there a company that makes a 3500-4000 stall that doesn't cost over 700 bucks? That's almost as much as I sold my whole t56 for!!!!

Read a lot of good about them so far plus they have a 1 year warranty but who knows how long it will be before I have the car up and running?

Depending on your build, we can get something in the $300 range. Give us a call Monday and we can go over some options with you!

I was looking at your 300mm lsx converter and seriously considering getting it. Just stuck on the stall speed.




Right now I'm at 3500 into my engine Justin. And still have about 7k more to go to have my car finished and ready for the lsx shootout.

Complete suspension can cost $2000-$3000 especially if you buy front suspension and a k-member. Plus if he needs DR's there is another $300-$500

Paint will be done last, total cost on the car including the purchase price of 6k 4 years ago will be 16,000 dollars. I just hope its worth it!

Wonder why their is a $400 difference on some converters? What is the REAL difference on quality? I know I'm getting a conveter soon and this would be one performance mod I'd want to spend top dollar on. Not to say all top $ parts are always better, but when it comes to your transmission, to many variables to consider for going the "cheaper" route.
