  • Where to get a custom torque converter?

    I'm looking for a replacement performance minded torque converter for my 4T45E. So far google searching has only produced a brief mention of a company called PDQ. Does anybody here have any recommendations? I need a company that will take my engine and use requirements and recommend a good stall speed for my application.

      as power increases so does stall speed... what are you going to be using your car for? what type of driving do you do and how often? whats your current setup?

          I would think TCC would do a custom TC.

            You may want to PM gectek, as I believe he has a custom torque converter. Im sure you know him from gagt.com spruce.

              Thanks but I already know this. I have an idea of what specs I want, but I want to talk to people that truly know this stuff.

              Silvergtjrad: Thanks as well, but I don't know where Geteck gets his converters. I have his tranny build sheet as well and.. no luck.

              What I want to know is who are the quality custom TC manufacturers. I'm not looking for something radical, but I don't want to run just a generic / stock high stall converter. So far I've found ProTorque, ATI, TCC(thanks Brad) and PDQ.

                  You also may want to look into a torque converter from a chevy cobalt. They use a 4t45e as well, and the stall speed may be different from our 4t45s. Something else interesting is that they are rated to 325tq as well.
