Has anyone used or heard anything about bdr torque converters? Car is mainly a street car but thought I would ask here for some feedback.

Brian Doan Racing in western NY (Buffalo). Could be 25-30 years old, but heard he's back at it again.

There is a website: http://stores.bdrtorqueconverters.com/-s.../Categories.bok

Has anyone used them? For drag racing?

Thanks

I know this is an old thread, but does anyone have any information on these converters?

I'm pretty sure Mike Janis uses one of Brian's converters in his Pro Mod...

Thanks, that's good to know.
I'm only planning on putting it into a street/strip Dart, so I don't really need anything exotic or crazy.

It's not like I'll be doing nothing but racing, and throwing massive amounts of nitrous at it.

Buy a proven piece when it comes to converters, don't cut any corners especially based on price Turbo Action, ATI, Dynamics by Lupo or any other good, well proven brands Been there done that it was absolutely stupid to buy based on price instead of reputation and proven performance products, especailly a new company


Mr.Cab Racing and winning with Mopars since 1964. (Old F--t, Huh)

I'm not basing anything on price alone, that's for sure! These guys came up while I was searching around, and they seem to have a pretty good reputation from what I can tell. Their prices are pretty much inline with the other proven converters, so I'm torn right now.

I'm going to stop by Mancini Racing today on my way home from work, and talk to Art to see what they have to offer me for the 904.
