I DO NOT WANT A TRANNY WAR!!!!!!!!

Vote in the poll only please.

I want to know which torque converter and valve body you would put in a 48re that will be used for towing somewhat heavy (8k-14k trailers) and just all around heavy footed unloaded street/strip driving.

Truck will have SMARTY, AFE, and soon to be some type of pusher pump before anything else.

My TC and VB are from different companies.

Just so you know, HTS uses a Suncoast Converter. They don't build their own.

rkelley- did you install it yourself? i know i can install a TC and VB myself with proper instructions. but the input shaft seems it may be more involved.

He will send you a video with your parts. I think the video can also be found at goerend.com.

Sorry, but I don't trust myself to install these parts. I had Phil McMaster in NC do the install. Excellent job and a great price. I would whole heartily recommend Phil to anyone. Great guy to work with and does an excellent job.
