Interesting to know.
Sent this convertor back to ATI, they told me that it hadn't ballooned.
Had it freshened up & sent back.
Put it back in, 10 passes, lost the thrust.
Chalked it up to the crank repair.
Had a new engine built, all I used from the old one was the rods & pistons.
New block & crank.
Had another custom convertor builder look at it, no signs of ballooning.
9 passes later, lost the thrust.
I have used two different transmissions, checked for binding & the trans, drive shaft & differential was used in another car with no concerns.
