Pro-Torque custom tailors a 10 1/2-inch-diameter torque converter to perfectly match SVT Lightning's power curve. Without changing rear gears the supercharged engine gets into boost quicker, then multiplies torque at a greater rate for more performance throughout the power band. "Many torque converter manufacturers are focused simply on stall-speed (the amount of torque converter slip), while Pro-Torque understands that torque multiplication is the key to performance" states Pro-Torque's Joe Rivera.

Reliability is increased as well as performance with furnace-braze fins for strength, Torrington thrust bearings replacing thrust washers, anti-ballooning plates and larger carbon ceramic lock-up clutches for better converter lockup. Unlike typical high performance torque converters, Pro-Torque doesn't have a "spongy" feel. In fact this extremely efficient design provides excellent mid-range and high-speed performance.

drop .3 off your 1320 increased torque multiplication. pi is imo the better choice for stall no name dropping but i have blown 2 lower priced stalls trying to pinch pennys wound up costing double

It's not a job I'd want to do twice, installing one either. I hope the Hughes unit lives up to the hype, I'll know soon. You can get a PI for 898 shipped from a vendor on NLOC, maybe LFP as well.
