I'd be disinclined to buy a custom TC for a pure daily driver. I can't see the return on the investment. Racing is another story altogether. Are you going to the track with this stroker from time to time?
the main reasoning is that now I will have a brand new engine, and a fully rebuild transmission...connected by a 40 plus year old torque converter which is handling at least double the HP it was intended for
that would make that the weak link, so why not replace it while the transmission is out anyway?
and if I'm springing for a new one, I figured the extra coin for a good one shouldn't be too much of an upcharge over an "off the shelf" converter
everything ive read on here told me to stay clear of the "of the shelve" convertors, mostly because there are too many variables that need to be considered in order to make it work perfectly
