Th350C converters, how all makes them?

Well one of the next things i want to do with the beast since the new motor is in is to start upgrading the rest of the driveline...

Since the new motors torque should be peaking at 3500rpm i think a higher stall is in order.

Now trying to find these things is like pulling hens teeth.


I see TCI has both a 1600-1800rpm ("saturday night special") and a 3500-3800rpm ("super streetfighter"). I figure the saturday night special is going to be too low of rpm to do any good and the super streetfighter wouldnt be bad except it doesnt have functional lockup which could be a real b!tc#


Any of you guys know some other reputable companys that make a functional lockup converter for a th350c with about a 2800-3000rpm stall?


Or maybe i should just try and rebuild the 700r4 and see how long it lasts...


Ahh he||, just noticed i screwed up the title...

Brain doesnt function well when its 2am and you havent slept for days becuase the 24hr daylight screws with your mind!!!!!!

Thanks, i dropped them a line. hopefully they can help me out.

But i think i may just end up butchering up my old 700R4. its probably going to cost less to rebuild a 700R4 and buy a 3000RPM stall for it than its going to be just for a high stall TC for a th350c!

You can usually get 3 TH350s built for the price of one 700R4.
