I don't mean to try to change your mind, but I am going to tell you my experience with TCI. I had a 69 Grande with an 87-93 HO motor. I ordered a TCI Street Fighter C-4 to replace my older one and a TCI Breakaway Torque Converter. I had to send the torque converter back, because they stamped the right part number on the wrong one, and sent me one that wouldn't work. Then after waiting for that to go and come back, I installed it all and wound up having to take the valve body out of the tranny and send it back because it wouldn't shift into 3rd correctly. So after waiting for that to go and come back, it ran right......for a few months and then crapped out on me right after a year, which of course is when the warranty ran out). I didn't abuse this tranny. Oh and I also had to make repeated long distance calls to get the shipping fee refunded to me for when I returned those parts. The people were nice and Jerry was the guy I dealt with mostly. He was very considerate. I will say that. However I won't buy any tranny's from TCI. Maybe I was just unlucky, but maybe not.
