so i was browsing the after market and came across this

http://www.fearthemonster.com/torque/converters/ford/racing/c4/

never heard of them, but just like everyone else i am on a budget, and that price caught my eye. im really trying to narrow down the options for a torque converter and im sure you get what you pay for. any help would be apretiated. im leaning to some of the bigger names just cause of the reputation like PA or TCI. not sure about hughes either i heard some bad things about them.

thanks
travis

so basically anything with about 3200-3600 stall is going to be around the $400-500 range.

also is if i do an ocasional run with nitrous is it absolutly neccesary to go with a conveter that has the Anti-Ballooning Plate? i would like to try to work my way up to a 200 shot eventually, if all goes as planned

B & M is my choice for a torque converter. My bro has one in his 60 ford F-100 and he drove it for 3 years without any problems, and it hauled ass. But he isnt driving it right now cause hes in Iraq( Army).

I got mine from www.edgeracingconverters.com . I couldn't be happier with it and the service and support I received from them.
