Default Best N/A 4L80E converter

Hi guy's getting ready to buy a converter for my t350 to 4l80e swap.
Do some converter builders have a better rep for the N/A side ?

This would be going behind (don't shoot me!) my 406 in my Nova.
Currently has a 8" converter that's got me 1.45 60's dead hooking off idle
and drives like a stock 13" converter.

Any thoughts would be great.

Thanks

I like my ptc convertor. I don't have no where near the cubes you have tho. Ptc seems to be pretty good company tho. I was happy with their service and the product since I have some drive and track time on it now. Circle d is also another good choice.

Thanks for the reply.
What did they do for your combo?
Single or multi disc, stall?
How is driving around town, taking off from stop lights with light throttle?

I have a single disk as I didn't need the wot lock up for my application. ITs a 10" convertor. I asked for a 4000. It ended up being a 4200 which I had no problem with. This is my first stalled auto so I have no previous set up to compare with but I don't mind it. I like how the car drives.

If you would like to talk about an 8" 230mm 4l80 converter, we would be happy to get you set up. Not a super common request, but pretty simple to do.
