Hey guys. Quick question. I'm not too familiar with torque convertors, but looking at this one, can somebody give me some tangible details as to horsepower gains/drivability, and any other difference i may notice compared to stock? Its for a 318 w/ 904 tranny. Tranny has a shift kit B&M.

Thanks!

Not much better than a stock converter

These converters feature silicon brazing for strength, needle bearings for reliability, and stator modifications for more torque multiplication.

If it's for a daily driver I wouldn't go much more than that. There's a lot of variables when selecting a torque converter. Weight, differential gearing, kind of intake/camshaft, just street or street/strip, etc.. I always use an external performance transmission cooler when I run a stall converter of any kind cause they will cause more heat.. There are some places on line you can fill out a form with the information about your vehicle and it will recommend a converter or call one of the manufactures and they can recommend one. You don't want to put the wrong one in and have to do it all over again. I use a TCI, 10", 3500+ stall in a 73 D100 that weights a lot with real low gears in the differential, tunnel ram intake with 2-4 barrel carbs. I rarely drive it on the street. The converter get's the behemoth moving pretty good. I believe that the lighter the vehicle the less stall you'll need. good luck.

How stock is the 318?
