Designed with the street/strip application in mind, this torque converter benefits more radically prepared street machines (those with performance cams, aftermarket carbs and higher compression ratios) to bring the launch RPM in line with the performance enhancements.

The StreetFighter® lets you take advantage of horsepower gains found in higher RPM ranges.

Installation hardware included.

Features:

Furnace-brazed fins

Needle bearings

Hardened pre-ground pump hub

Computer balanced

Benefits:

Higher RPM launches

Quicker reaction times

Lower elapsed times

Better low- and mid-range power

With heavy-duty front anti-ballooning plate for nitrous applications.

What type of clearance should I have between the torque converter and flexplate before pulling the converter forward and bolting it to flexplate?

You should have 1/8" (.125") to 3/16" (.1875") between the torque converter and flexplate before pulling the converter forward and bolting it to flexplate.

Performance enthusiasts often underestimate the critical role torque converters play in putting their expensive horsepower to the pavement. TCI® street/street rodder and street/strip converters are designed by experienced drive train engineers to provide a significant increase in performance on the street or at the strip. With a more efficient stall speed, faster acceleration and better mid-range power, your machine will get the rear wheel power it deserves.

Some special features of TCI® torque converters include furnace-brazed fins for reinforcement and durability as well as heat-treated sprag races for increased strength and lifespan. They also utilize bearings that increase thrust capacity and reduce drag, as well as turbine spline reinforcement welds for increased durability and a heat-treated steel hub that increases converter strength.

TCI® employs a highly specialized production process that involves ensuring that each unit is built to spec. Regardless of category or price level in which a TCI® torque converter falls, rest assured that it has been Triple Tested during assembly.

Once all prep work on the component parts has been completed, the impeller is welded to the front cover. Immediately following this process, a pair of dial indicators is employed on a rotating table to verify that the impeller body and pump drive hub remain true. Each unit is then pressurized and subjected to a leak test to confirm the integrity of all weld seams. Last, each unit is computer balanced to reduce annoying and potentially damaging drive train vibrations that can occur from an unbalanced torque converter. That’s Triple Tested, so that you can be confident you’re receiving a torque converter that’s perfect for your specific application.
