He said it was a high stall and ran pretty aggressively in his 12 second Dart. He drove it for a summer and then did something else with the car. It is obviously aftermarket when compared to stock, although the diameter of it is still 11". The only numbers I can find are 142222 which may make it a TCI. Any help in IDing it? If it is a TCI, thoughts on in in a 440 A body with 4.10's for street and strip? I read enough to know that the PTC/Dynamic etc. is the way to go, however I am on a budget here. Thank you for your help. ROB 1989 Dodge Cummins & 1989 Dodge W-250

It was at a swap meet and the guy seemed credible enough, plus he had the other parts from the car there so I bought it on a whim. Always a risk, but I would imagine it is fine. He charged me $40.00 at the end of the day I didn't know it was a $500 plus dollar one until today... If it is that bad I can pull it out. Hopefully it will work good and I can get with the program...... ROB 1989 Dodge Cummins & 1989 Dodge W-250
