Glide question

Just reading your thread, and had one comment, being a racer, I don't normally purchase "low end" converters but I have never had a race converter that didn't have the bushing between the drive cover and the turbine, which locates the front of the input shaft and negates the necessity of the stator tube bushing. Some recommend if you have the converter bushing you should not use the stator bushing, but I have usually ran both, although currently not running the stator tube bushing.
