torque converter?

JUICED SVT · 03-17-2009, 04:49 PM

I'm going to install a new converter in the stang and was wondering who has a good one for the 4r70w? Also what would a good stall speed be? Not looking for a full race converter but it will see ocasional track time. Maybe 3000-3200? Thanks for any help.

If it is a daily driver I wouldn't go over 3000

It is a daily driver. Have you guys had any experience with edge torque converters or what about b&m

I would call "Precision Industries" and see if they offer one... www.converter.com

Or, give PTC a call (they're in Muscle Shoals, AL). www.ptcrace.com

when i called him and talked to him about one for my car he said the lockup would only get me 200-400 rpm. i dont remember what he priced the non lockup for.
