CHOOSING THE RIGHT TORQUE CONVERTER

call a converter company and get one custom made to your combo and intended use.. the three most common places that come up are dynamic,ultimate and ptc.

i have used a couple from dynamic and have have been very happy with them..

modern converter technology is incredible.. they flash high but drive on the street like a stock one.. the one in our dart is a 9.5" with a mild 360 and a 3.23 gear. flashes to 3800rpm but it drives around town and on the highway great and when ya mash the throttle it hits like you were shot out of a cannon... gone are the days that you shouldn't go over a 3000 stall on the street..

it always amazes me that guys with put thousands upon thousands into their stroker 800 hp build and trans but skimp on the converter. the damn converter will make or break a combination.. i get it. i was there. i didn't understand it either until i spent the money based on a friends recommendation.. the difference is incredible..

the biggest thing when you are on the phone ordering one is be completely honest on the combination (you have the sheet and dyno sheet so thats easy). and just as important be 100% honest on your intended use. if its 90% street then say that... 90% track then tell them.. its very important. if not 100% honest with them and yourself chances are you will not be happy with the results...

and be prepared to spend 600-800 dollars on a good custom made converter. well worth the money in my opinion... i'd call a few places and see what they recommend, compare what they all say and go with who you feel most comfortable with..
