Default Fuddle Racing Converter Group Purchase

EXTENDED THROUGH THE END OF JUNE


This time around it is a lot more basic:
Now through May 31, our Performance Converter can be built to your specs for only $359.


Also, if you need a transmission cooler, we can include our 18,000 GVW cooler in the GP for $40 with any converter purchase. This makes the cost with the cooler actually less than the regular cost of a converter alone!

Payments are accepted through Paypal using jfuddle@msn.com. Make sure to include your name(screen name too), address, final stall/str decision, and year/car with payments. Remember, converters take 7-10 days to build.

As always, feel free to contact me about a stall/STR recommendation. We want you to get the best setup for car, so feel free to ask any questions you may have.

Thanks,
John
Fuddle Racing

what do you guys ahve for a heavy car, 2004 GTO, with 150 shot and stock everything else? I was thinking of a 3000 stall (want to launch on the bottle at 3000 rpm) on good tires....will your cnoverters handle a heavy car and nitrous?

Mulari:
It isn't a typo. The deals are good through May.

SDB and OnE Ls1 2 HaTe:
There is no reason that these converters cannot handle a 100-150 shot of nitrous. Beyond that out of the hole, it is getting into the area where you are pushing it. However, if you do decide to go with a crazy shot out of the hole, we will stand behind it. We are very proud of the hassle free nature of our warranty. If something happens, we'll replace it. If you get to a point where you are making too much power, we offer our upgrade program. We do offer converters that can handle A TON of power, but for people making less than about 550hp, there is no need to go above the Performance Converter.

I highly recommend this guys, I am having John build me a Race Style Torque Converter and he has emailed me almost anytime he needed to ask something about my car. Most manufactures would just look at your car's info from a sheet and build what they think the customer wants, John asks my opion about what i think will be the best for me, a great guy. I hope you guys sell a lot

I wish we could get someone to do a back to back track test with a Fuddle converter and a Yank.

It would be nice to see a back to back test, but what I can tell you is that these converters have been performing very impressively at the track. On a stock car using stock tires, we just saw a customer drop .6 in the 1/4. The efficiency of the converter screamed at the top of its lungs with him GAINING 2mph on the same run! As far as the Yank owning the Fuddle Racing converter, I'd have to see it to believe it.

We are getting ready to release several new lines, including a 4l80e. I should have prices up by the end of the weekend.

Gotcha back with the PM.

Sorry for the delays on getting back to a couple of you guys. I have been preparing for and attending an ATRA convention. Basically it has consumed my life for the last few days. But now that that is over, I can breathe and get back to myself with replying to messages. Again, sorry and thanks for understanding guys.

Man, I hate ever saying no, but unfortunately, we don't have a 278mm converter in our lineup as of right now. In my opinion, the 278mm converter is the ONLY way to get a good stall speed and maintain an ability to tow. We do have lines that can handle it on the clutch end, but the 245mm converters are just to small to handle towing well. We are working on a line of truck converters, but it could be month or two before we have them ready for the market.
Thanks (and sorry),
John
