There is, what seems to be a hairline fracture on the snout of my converter, it is very small. I had an issue with some dripping from the front of the bellhousing when in gear, how possible is it that this is an issue?
It is a very young converter, and what would cause this?
You are lucky that you caught that , the convertor needs a new snout , not sure what causes it but it seems to be something that happens to 904s

i see where that can happen. that'd be my motivation to finally switch to a 4/5speed. Depending on dynamics reply to the situation (my guess is they'll want somewhere about $300 to fix a $650 converter), it may go back in and get babied for awhile..if it breaks, its 4spd time. No telling how long its been cracked, i hammer on it every time i take it out. Never wanted to run an auto to being with.
just do the switch now , it's out , you are crazy to put it back , besides i'm 99% that is the source of your leak , it probably is outside the lip of the seal so it's only going to leak once you put it back in .
there's a hi stall 904 convertor in the swap section
