    Who builds maroon torque converters?

    So I was told I would be getting a suncoast 1056 as a warranty replacement when the ats built converter in my kit gave up at 100 miles. The new one showed up today in an unmarked box and it's maroon in color. Almost like black cherry. Last I checked a suncoast is gold or gray. Anyone have an...

    Odd chattering noise from torque converter area.

    I definitely won't be putting it back in without tearing it down to check it all out. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Odd chattering noise from torque converter area.

    They are sending me a suncoast 1056 to replace this lime green abortion of a converter I've got now. I asked the sales manager if they cover clutch damage due to the metal and they said they will cover the converter and absolutely nothing more. As far as I'm concerned they will not get another...

    Odd chattering noise from torque converter area.

    I'm calling alligator in the am and telling them about it. It's advertised that it has a 5year 500,000 mile warranty on it and it's been 5 days and 300 miles. I'm gonna tell them I don't want another one of these pos converters. They offer the precision ml converter as part of the kit so...

    Odd chattering noise from torque converter area.

    Yes I did build it, it's what I do. I changed the spin on at 150 miles also and it didn't have hardly anything on the magnet. Then it started this chattering thing so I called ats and was told its normal. I asked if I should just drive it until it blows up then? I was told it will be fine and...

    Well it was a shit converter after all. It gave up on life with just over 300 miles on it. Spin on has a shit load of metal, haven't pulled the pan yet. Too ****ing pissed right now. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Odd chattering noise from torque converter area.

    I'm sure they are over torqued a bit and yes, I used blue loctite. I've heard of a higher stall converter chatter a little bit but a good friend of mine just ordered the same rebuild kit for his 5 sp with the same converter and his doesn't make any noise at all. I just wanted to make sure that...

    Odd chattering noise from torque converter area.

    So I just rebuilt my 5sp alli. I used the alligator stage 5 kit with alto clutches, full transgo shift kit and 1800 stall alligator (ats built) torque converter. The build came out good, got all my clearances right and all my hard parts looked great. Reused all the bearings because they still...

    Anyone used the Alligator stage v kit?

    Through them their kit is $2300, ppe is $2500 and suncoast with a 1056 converter ends up being $3000. Just wasn't sure which route to go for sure now that I have the money. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
