I need to know if I need to replace my torque converter, and if so, which one do I get (and where)? I just want a stock one, nothin crazy.

It's an 200 I6 with a stock C4. I'm rebuilding the C4, and don't know if I need to re-use or get another. Let me know if more info is needed, cause I'm clueless.

i think i have an extra one laying around, ill call down to my "shop" when i get home and find out for you.

 

Always use a new torque converter with a transmission rebuild.

 

good, I'm glad I knew that and didn't use the old one.

Sorry USMC, the link was dead. But I did search O'Reilly's website and they had one. Why I thought a general parts store wouldn't have one, I have no idea.

The have three to choose from (it must be a 24 spline input shaft):

2300-2500 RPM (seems to be most stock-ish)
Comp Cams 274 (2:1 torque mult.)
Comp Cams 284 (2.2:1 torque mult.)

none have prices, but I couldn't imagine more than $200.

So which one should i get? Any ideas?

 

Well I called them, and none of them have the ring gear installed already. Now what do I do...

 

What ring gear are you talking about?

 

Im not 100% sure ... but i believe the stock TC is around 16-1800 stall if your going for stock.

 

Savior, none of the torque converters have ring gears, its part of the flexplate. Get the cheapest rebuilt TQ you can find for your I6. should be less than 120 bucks

 

since it's a 200ci, the ring (starter) gear is welded onto the TC.

After like 67 or something, they put it on the flexplate.
