I went and picked up my new convertor Sunday morning. WOW! I must say, I don't think I have ever seen a nicer convertor for a torqueflite personally. Lets see if anyone can identify the manufacturer. Hint, it isn't a big dollar operation, but he has made convertors for a well known transmission and convertor company in the past. Here are some pics.

but it is a very nice cover
