I'm interested in the shift kit.

All good tranny shops rebuild transmissions and torque converters. Most offer a beefed up torque converter. With out the shift kit it's not worth it to me.

My Torque Converter is going soon... I can hear my tranny sounds like I have twin plate clutch like my RX-7. I email Level Ten. They quote me $1836.58 for a Torque Converter made for my turbo 8. At that price I think it is too high. I rather go MT if going to spend that money. How much did you guys paid for your Torque Converter from Level Ten?

Got a reply back from Level 10. They did not have any used converter in stock, and have that buy new one from dealer. That's y cost so much. I'll try to see if I can get a used one. Anyone have a used one parting out?

^^ Did Level 10 give you any spec's on the converter they offered? Did they say what all you would be getting for your $1800+

Contact Level Ten and see if you send them your torque converter after receiving yours upgraded converter and get the core charge?

Or contact Mazmart and see what they'd charge for a converter.
