im building a 383 which will be on the bottle. any ideas on what torque converter to use. oh i will be useing a 700r4. one more question....will a 7004r off of a 6 cylinder bolt onto a 350.

 

I have been told by several people that a good (expensive) converter is well worth the money.

I recently bought an Edge racing converter. (1-888-350-EDGE or www.edgeracingconverters.com ) I havent even put it in yet. It looks like a very nice piece. They are pretty popular with the B-Body crowd. It wasnt as expensive as a PI Vigilante (very good as well). Wish I had it in so I could tell you if it was what it is cracked up to be.

Call Edge and talk to a guy named Andre. All of the Edge converters are custom built. You give them a ton of specs about your car and what you want to accomplish and they build a converter for you. No part numbers. Build time is only about 4-7 business days.

They are probably more expensive than a B&M, but are also custom built. IIRC, mine was about $525. I was happy, I got the converter, a TransGO kit for my 4L60E, and a TruCool cooler for less than a PI Vigilante converter by itself. I recommend giving them a call even if you dont go with them. Andre seems pretty knowledgable and will answer your questions.

 

thanks ill check them out. theres a few things i havent desided on like my cam. any ideas lookin for a good nitrous cam to go with brodix heads, victor jr intake and ross 10.5-1 or 11-1 pistons. but anyways im really lookin into that coompany i like the fact they custom make there parts.
