Anyway, if you're on a budget, why are you going with a lockup TH400? That's big $$$ right there! Coverting a TH400 or TH350 to lockup involves a lot of modifications that can easily add $1500 to the over all price of the tranny, not including the electronics.

Oh...I thought he said lock up and that's why everybody went on the this whole lock up TC rant. My bad. 
What about a Fuddle. I hear good things and they're priced more competitivley. Another thing to remembe about the Precision Industries is that you get 2 re-stalls for free I believe. That's a huge + in my book.

I still wouldnt buy a TCI again just for the fact they make a shitty lock up clutch converter, makes you wonder what corner they cut in their non lockup.
