Good price! I've been looking at the Boss Hog, and PTC converters too.

I am sure ger may be better now. But in the late 80s early 90s my little weak knee 351 cleveland would break one pretty easy

Yea. I think they had a problem with big torque (isn't it called a "torque converter?" lol). Friend had a stout supercharged combo in front of an AOD and tore up a couple GER's but it was in the late 90's.

I recommend PTC since they're local (Muscle Shoals). Precision Stallion is good too.
