I would recommend our "4C", will be about a 3600. It is a great converter for daily driving and performance at the track! Built to handle the spray, billet front and billet piston. We have the parts in stock and can ship today, you would get it tomorrow!!! 2 year Warranty.

i wonder when he started sending out howards converters, what color are your torque converters, if i remember correctly, mine was like a light blue.

My stall is as loose as a hooker... oh well though it digs like a ****! still works after 10k of abuse!

It is your fault, you're supposed to tune out lock up

Volcanic- Do it right the first time man. You will thank me later

Stop by Circle D and take a tour. You will see what I'm talking about.

The 4C will really compliment your set up.
