Converter for the AODE
 

Who makes, if anybody a conveter for the '97 AODE, and how much does it go for. Also if anyone has it installed, how do you guys like it??? Does it make a big difference when you slam it from the stop light ???

------------------
'97 GT, full lenght MAC headers, MAC Pro chamber h-pipe, Mac 2.5" Cat-back w/chrome tips, AODE 4W70R, K&N, Eibach springs and a 150 NOS wet shot system. Coming very soon, 4.10 gears, T56, and some medium suspension work.

I think some of the best converters out there are the ProTorque, ArtCarrs' & Precision Industries Stallion converter. I have tried the PI & Protorque and both are awesome and can handle tons of power. I'm actually having my stall increased tomorrow by ProTorque to 3200 rpms. It makes a huge difference off the line and with the NOS and Gears you have, traction is going to be a problem. The converters I mentioned are about $695-$800, but you will not break them with 800 hp. The only reason I use the ProTorque and not the Stallion is because ProTorque is 15 minutes from my house and it's easy to keep changing the stall until I find what really works.
