Re: Torque converter

So I don't know anything about that TC, but when I did mine, a lot of guys said this was one area where you get what you pay for. A lot of the higher end manufacturers will also rebuild your unit to different specs down the road if the need arises. Warranties, etc. etc, look into all of that. ...if you're still looking at that 500 hp mark, you're gonna work that thing pretty good! Don't go cheap here. PITA to replace!

Re: Torque converter

Yeah i am and i was just curious if i needed anything else to support it because i heard that if you dont have a head and cam set up dont bother getting one yet, and if i should go ahead and get that rear main seal fixed while they have the trans out.
