Go on eBay and search for "700r4 converter". You need a B4C converter (I believe thats right...its the code for the smaller converter. You probably won't actually see that code listed though but you have that info if you want to supply it to the company). 27 spline, as mentioned. The company that I got mine from is Road Runner Converters, out of AZ. I am happy with mine and they will do whatever stall you want (within reason. they did for me, anyway). Very low price but, like I said, I'm happy with mine.

Redraif had hers done by Neal Racing Convertors in Snellville, GA...Ask for Keith, 678-614-4805. They do great work (build transmissions also), and are very reasonable.
