hi
just wondering if any one here has tried any of the e bay convertors ?

saw an add from oregan performance with a low stall billit one for $699.00 ?

any one try these or any other brands from e bay ?

thank you !

 

no one ?????

 

i seen them also.i'd like to get myself a low stall.

 

Do you really want to go through that much work to install cheap parts?

 

When a converter fails, and they do fail, it's usually the lockup that fails and it sends particles through out...been there. Don't buy a suspect converter, it's not worth gambling the transmission on.
Wholesale cost on the HD they put in mine was $850, stock rebuild was $600. Sounds like, by cost, it's just a stock low stall.

 

this is from the add.it seem's like there willing to stand by there product

I have been running the TCI Billet converter for over 4 years and no problems. Got it from JEGs for about $500.
