I would like to drop in and say hello to the LS1 family and proudly say I am a sponser on LS1Tech. Circle D is a Transmission and Torque Converter shop. We custom build Transmissions and torque converters. We make our specialty converter parts, ie billet fronts and billet pistons, in house on our CNC equipment. We are located in Houston. We do ship some transmissions out, but really prefer to do them local, which is why I posted in the Texas forum. Circle D Specialties, the name of the torque converter division, ships converters nation wide. We are updating our website and will be posting lots of pictures of our new converters. Stop by or give us a call, we would be happy to show you around or answer any questions you have.

The shops are right next to each other, both shops were started by my father, I bought the converter shop from my father a few years ago, so they have different names, but really all the same family.

Nice, i was looking at your site a few months ago and will be hitting you guys up some time in the next few months.

 

I have used Circle D in the past when my car had a auto.... Nothing but great things to say about their work !!!

Good to hear maybe I can have a 4L60E that will hold power now. 7 times at 1 shop sucks and still 2-3 nails the limiter.

 

Best bet is to yank that 4L60E, for a M6

 

I took my T56 to circle D and they had it fixed in 2 days....

great bunch of guys w/ excellent customer service! Even dropped me off at work!

 

No big surprise, but I am glad to see them here as a sponsor.

Welcome aboard Guys!!!!

 

Welcome to the board and enjoy your stay!!!

They just did some work on mine..

 

Chris's convertors have dramaticly improved the 60' times on several of the cars that I have built. Don't need to say much but he definately knows his stuff

 

Thanks for all the replies , maybe we can have an open house one day to show all the insides of the transmission and torque converter and all that can be done.

Got a converter for an A6 Paddle shift Corvette?

 

Yes Larry, I do. I presume this is the Larry I spoke with a few months back. I have you on my list to call. I have tested a few 10" 6L80 for the A6's with good success, but I think the stall still needs to be higher. Most guys were getting a foot brake of 25-2800, I can go as high as you want. 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?
