RE: converter install
ORIGINAL: luckythirteen13
i had the trans rebuild first thing when i got it. 4th gear was replaced, shift kit, and a whole new housing so the rear seal has about 2k miles on it.
what is a good price for the converter itself? anyone have a link to a good, affordable, 2200-2500rpm converter?

RE: converter install
well im going to get a ford converter (2200-2400) and have it installed tomorrow.
its going to cost me $450 parts and labor. guess its not that bad.

RE: converter install
damn, i didnt even think it was that high.
hey roundy, ive heard that the more hp/torque you have, the higher stall the converter will have (within reason of couse, give or take a couple hundred rpm), is that true?
oh ya, is $450 to much for parts and labor? thats the best he could do.....so he says

and $450 for the converter and the install is a damn good price if you ask me.
