I have used their th350 converter in a previous car which was cam only and 150 shot for a 1.46 60'. I am also using their converter in my current car (4l60e). I have absolutely no complaints!

They are very strong units, billet front, billet clutch, all the good stuff. I should have the next run done in a few weeks, interested?

Yep, that was me. Right now I'm entertaining the thought of an 08. Might have to wait awhile before I get one. That 2500 might be a good street choice though.

Welcome. I heard great things about you when I lived in Houston. (Jersey Village area)
But a year ago, when I converted to a TH400 from a M6, I called your shop for TQ converter info. Whomever answered the phone blew me off. Still a bit sore about that.
Glad to see things have turned around.
