I went through this last fall. Front seal went. Needed torque converter, bell housing. oil pump,. At a transmission shop the cost of a stock rebuilt torque converter was 395.00. I just checked the bill and it does not say what brand.
Dacco makes one. The rebuilt worked great. Launched strong at the track.

I have a protorque TC in my SL65, when my old one burnt up inside. 830 for a rebuilt, pairs well with a Southern Hotrod Transmission. Both used in some mercs but mostly the high HP dodges that use our trans.

S/W with my trans. shop. They use Dacco, trans star and trans max.


They say all make a quality rebuilt product, and said Dacco has been around forever.
