Hey Guys & Gals. I have been racking my brain on the best stall/torque converter and boy have there been some improvements over the years. I use to get by with high rpm neutral starts on my car back in the day because you could always expect some wheel spin due to the slicks not having the "grab" of today's new compounds and design. So, I have decided to spring for a new converter and some new rubber. I have narrowed it down to two choices, the B & M Holeshot and the TCI Saturday Night Special. I think just the names are pretty hip-as well as the performance of them. I was also reading in a National Dragster paper that a local racer out of Emporia that has won some races likes to use a Conan converter (at least I think that was the name of it) I have included a photo of one of my choices. If anyone has ran any of these brand of converters, please give me your input on them. Have a great weekend everyone! Is March here yet? I'm chewing my nails-I can't wait!!! Thanks Emitt Attachments:

Opps I was asked to correct my previous post. Jegs/Summit have free shipping. Its the 19.98 Non-box fee handling per tire plus the 13.98 order handling and the 5.00 area surcharge is what I should have posted. Rich

Coan will build a converter to match your enine, trans, gears etc. If you change anything, they'll rebuild the converter to match your combo for very little if any cost.
