Flex plate bolts witness marks on torque converter

When talking to any converter builder, if you are keeping your old transmission make sure they are aware of that.

I agree with what you are saying, but I don't want to lose anymore down time. Already the middle of June, yeah I work really frickin slow lol. The future plan was to "probably" get another converter for the 340(higher stall). I believe the 273 one I have now is stock. Also getting a tc specific to the 340 allows me to shelf the 273 one for the 273 that I plan on rebuilding.
What about buying a complete 340 one from SMR? Obviously you recommend them?
Thanks

I did business with SMR in the past. The owner was a drag racer of some note, travelling up and down the East Coast. We sold him performance shafts, drums and other hard core race items for the TF 727 and 904 transmissions that the we made. He knew his stuff. Unless things have completely changed, I wouldn't hesitate buying a converter from him at all. Just make sure you answer truthfully any and all questions about your combination when and if you order a converter. Give a converter builder the wrong information and you will be disappointed in the results.
