does anyone run a 8" converter in a torqueflite with over 1200+ hp at the flywheel, 1185 HP at the rear wheels.
if not what do you run? will i go through the converter? this is a N/A motor, no power adders.
i tried a 9.5 but not too thrilled with the performance.

10" Chance converter.



The Rossler TH210 XHD three speed has no equal .

2 year warranty

Forget the flimsy 727 there is no point.

An 8 inch core doesn't have the diameter needed to hold that much torque and lock up. At least a tight 9 inch ,maybe 9.5 or 10 inch core set up to match what you have.
