Several posts on the buick boards about switching from Precision to PTC and getting better street manners and better MPH with higher stall.

Hands down the Circle D Billets stuff is the way to go. Give Chriss a call. You will not find better customer service and willingness to work with you. His Billet stuff are designed in sutch a manor that you can switch from a 258mm convertor to a 245mm convertor. If he has to re-stall the convertor he does not "bend" the vains, he replaces everything in the convertor with new billet parts. You get a few re-stalls with the convertor when you buy it so if it is not exactly what you want he will change it up for you at no cost. He worked with me until it was perfect, not once did he get agrivated, he was way more conserned with getting it just right then I was. Look them up on the internet and I think you will be very impressed. You will have a hard time finding a better convertor then his.

ALL the fast cars in South Florida are running FTI converters. Great support and a winning product.

i contacted FTI with there website request, I normally dont get a chance throught the day to call anyone and by the time I get off everyone is also off. How much do the FTI's run for the most part since there site doesnt have pricing.

I don't have a Turbo car but I second that on the PTC.. The best customer service in my oppinion. They will go above and beyond to make things right.. I have a 8" 5000 stall converter and a FMVB th350 tranny all built by PTC..

My best 60ft so far was with the old 4l60E tranny and a PTC 4000 stall converter. I went 1.46 60ft. with a stock bottom end 3600lb LS1 on the motor
