Or will I always be just 'ol me?
I am starting this thread just to show off my new toy, I haven't been buying many lately.

 

Classy packaging:

 

The boot is for reference of size:

 

It is a billet 310mm 1600 rpm stall speed, I guess from a diesel. I called and asked for a lower than stock stall speed. They don't offer multi-plate clutches for this size converter, too bad. But the salesman (Brian? Sorry if I'm wrong) said that the clutch has some special friction material to make it much better than stock.

 

I slipped the lockup clutch in my stock one pretty bad a couple of times, so I figured I would upgrade. I will feel confident that a ballooning converter won't cause engine damage, and this converter should extend my power range by not wasting all of the power that is available below the rpm that the stock converter stalled at.
I wonder if it will be easier to launch by reducing wheel spin?

 

It might be a while before I can review it, my engine is out being freshened up.

 

you got a free shirt? i didn't get a free shirt!!

 

Circle D sent me a beer cozy.

Looks like a fun part! I remember showing my wife my converter and she just wanted to know how much I spent on that damn metal donut.

 

Lmfao when i get a free hat or shirt with car parts my girl ask....how much did you have to spend to get a free shirt? My answer....it was only 150...the shirt was a trick performance shirt and one was a fti converter shirt lol

 

As long as it came with a sticker to put on the back...I remember when Fast n' Furious came out those were usually worth 5hp each...
