Here's your hot tip of the day:

Turbine Technologies is selling their 700R4 lockup converters for less than $200 now.

All I ask is that you tell Tom that I referred you to him.

Mail Tom McCabe at transstuff@aol.com

or write him at:

TOM MCCABE C/O TURBINE TECH, INC.
PO BOX 187
LINCOLN PARK,NJ 07035

This is what Tom had to say about his converters:

DAN
YOU ASKED SOME GOOD QUESTIONS AND I'LL TRY TO GIVE A GOOD ANSWER! THE VAST
MAJORITY OF HIGH STALL CONVERTERS ARE OVERPRICED FOR SEVERAL REASONS. YES,
SOME ARE CUSTOM BUILT FROM SCRATCH AND THESE ARE WORTH THE $1000+ THAT THEY
SELL FOR, HOWEVER, MOST OF THESE HIGH END CONVERTERS ARE USED IN DRAGSTERS
AND THE LIKE. MANY, IF NOT MOST, THAT ARE ADVERTISED IN MAGAZINES ARE PRICED
THAT WAY BECAUSE PEOPLE PAY IT. PLAIN AND SIMPLE.
THE ONES WE'VE CUT OPEN (100'S) ARE NOT ANYTHING SPECIAL.
WE SELL AN AFFORDABLE CONVERTER THAT DOES WHAT MOST PEOPLE WANT WITHOUT BEING
A HEAT PUMP THAT DESTROYS THE TRANS BEHIND IT.
I GAVE BARRY A GOOD PRICE BECAUSE HE IS A PRIOR CUSTOMER, IF YOU WALK IN OFF
THE STREET WE CHARGE $200
I'M NOT SAYING THAT YOU'RE GETTING SCREWED PAYING BIG BUCKS BUT WE CAN SELL
OURS FOR THIS PRICE AND STILL MAKE MONEY AND THE CUSTOMER IS HAPPY. THIS IS A
SIDELINE FOR US AND MOST OF THE TIME EVERYONE IN THE SHOP GETS INVOLVED
BECAUSE THEY LIKE TO DO SOMETHING DIFFERENT ONCE IN A WHILE.
ITS SOMETHING OF A GIFT FROM ONE CAR NUT TO ANOTHER!
