He tells me that any performance Torque converter in the aftermarket(Stall speeds, ect) is actually a Mopar external converter with General Motors internals.




For the most part he has that backwards, if "GM internals" were used the converter wouldn't fit on the Mopar input shaft and reaction shaft. In some cases the converter shell is originally a stock part from another manufacturer with internals modified to fit Mopar shafts; Mopar external hubs, drive lugs and ring gear were installed.

Early examples are the Ford Cortina and the Opel converter which were modified for use on Mopars, GM, etc.
