Chevy Torque converter in a 904?

In the 70s they used to call them vega converters because they would use the back half, weld on a new hub and voila , a 3500 stall . The chevy boys used to brag how they had a vega 3500 stall, well for a while anyways till the converter puked and ate their tranny.WE CHUCKLED AS WE TOWED THEM HOME.
