Racing Transmissions Torque Converters

The new converter slides into place on the transmission input shaft. Remember, the converter has to attach to the transmission at three points--the input shaft, the stator support, and the front pump gear--so it may take a little finesse to get everything to fit. Apply light pressure to the converter as you spin it, and it should drop into place. Do not apply significant force, as you may damage something.
