Which is the "best" Torque Converter.

AWESOME Chris...glad to hear your woes are over...for now *snicker*

I have a 3600 PI...it is stupid on spool up and pretty hard on the drive train, but I LOVE it...Hal doesn't mind and i have not had any problems with it since install (a few years, and around 10,000 miles)

 

thanks kyle..... just nice to have the car behaving better. now it is down to see johan at diablo and finish the tuning!!!

 

Glad to hear you got it cleared up Chris, good for you buddy!!! How much did the shop charge you for the swap, flush, install, etc.???? I'm following your lead here.......

 

it was done by one of my fellow flxc club members that has his own shop. hell, i spent 150 bucks just for the filter, pan seal, and ATF-4 fluid!!! all told, i probably dropped 500 bucks for the swap, including the cost of the convertor!

best thing is...... my car acts soooooooooo much better now!!! spent the morning taking my little one to the doctor for some follow up, and the car performed flawlessly in morning commute traffic!!! no more slipping and sliding!!!

 

I have had Pro-Torques in both my SRT(which was the very first in a SRT) and put 33k miles on it with over 250 passes before I sold the car to HemiC and I have a ProTorque in the 300 and thats approaching the 40k mile mark.In both cars it's road manners were excellent and it worked very well at the track.

 

this is what i am liking about the protorque that just went in mine yesterday...... road manners seem very nice so far. we will see if it plays nice on the dyno when i finish up my tuning and then how it does on the track!!!

Monday morning meeting at the LegMaker company:
"Wednesday is track day. You ALL will report to the track promptly at 1:30 pm and sit in a tight group in the stands. You WILL make some noise whenever I go down the track and especially when I come back down the return lane. that is all."

 

holy shit dave...... i have tears in my eyes!!!!

track nights are actually on weds, and i usually have one or two guys go out to the track!!!! dhahahahahahahahhahaha

you must think i lead with an iron fist!!!!! lol

 

King of ID (whatever that cartoon is) comes to mind :grin:
