Good luck getting ATI to do that for you. Every time I call them they say they won't touch another companies stuff.

ATI is the best most reliable. At most national and some div they have reps @ the track. Not sure ,however, if they will rebuild a convertor that is not theirs. 800-284-3433 ask for Chris or Charlie.

Hi Smitty,
No I am not doing a freshen up on my engine over the winter. It doesen't have very many runs on it yet. I am updating the brakes from drums to disc. I was having trouble getting stopped at some of the short tracks. I just didnt trust those old brakes anymore. Plus I need to get some weight out of the car. I was about 70 lbs heavy for SSIA. Then I also need a looser converter. Mine only stalls to about 5500 with the 327. The converter I have is for a 350. I hope to see you at the races after the first of the year.

Munsinger rebuilt my old converter and picked me up an honest .09.
Great guy to deal with. My .02 cents. Jeff Goss |

I agree with Jerry Maxwell, my vote goes to A1.
I'm running the same convertor that was built for my fwd cavalier (an 8" 3600 stahl speed non-lock-up unit), back in 1996! Other than loosening it in 1998, I haven't had to touch it since then, and once I moved down here to the lower altitudes of Div. 7 from the nose bleed section of Div 5, I've actually had stahls to 3900 rpm.'s! I don't stahl my convertor anymore, but it's still the same one! My car may not be a super stocker, but whether your car is a super stocker , or a stocker A1 has rulled the west (and the high country of Division 5), and if I'm not mistaken even Charlie and Jeff Taylor used A1 convertors in their former Camaros as well as Jeff's newer cars, and they were racing in the southeast where three of the most well known convertor makers call home..TCI, Turbo Action, and ATI???

We have been using ATI in our personal race cars and customers cars since 1979. I know in the past, they get it right the first time. We are a WD whosale distributor and can save you money on all ATI performance products. They'll make you fly. E-mail me if you need anything. martyrinehartjr@yahoo.com

Smitty,
I have used Turbo Action to rebuild the converter for my car. I have known Paul for over 35 years and he is also a member of SSSSA. Rusty
