Not literally of course. Not having changed mine in a LONG time, just checking to see who has been making Torqueflite equipped heavy 8 second cars go fast!

Not as quick as you Greg but my ultimate converter as been flawless. Not the cheapest but built by the man himself, not some employee just getting a wage.

We use Paul Forte at TurboAction for all our Mopars with the exception of Donny's blower car.We use Coan and Neal Chance for our Lencoglide.We have been dealing with TA for over 30 years and are well satisfied.

All I've got are TA convertors. Paul is a real nice guy to deal with and IMO has a great product.Dave

Continental, A1 years ago before Marv sold it to the new owners Munsinger,T/A, Lupo, Neal Chance, ATI are all good. I'm sure thier are others that can build a good converter as well but can they build a good one for your needs the first time ?

Lenny is the best hand down. Personal service, excellent feedback and each converter is built precisely to fit each application.

Lenny @ Ultimate, I have two TA 8 inch 904 converters redone by him and he redid the 518 lock up converter in my D150 ( a tenth quicker in 60ft )

Another vote for Lenny at Ultimate. My 8" flashed right where he said it would, and I just picked up a 7" from him as well.

I've ran 8" ATI converters in 3 of my cars over the years and they ran awesome on the street and strip.
