I just put a Circle D 3000 stall in the Syclone a week ago and it's great so far. :greg:
Chris, is there anyway you guys could leave more metal on the bolt flats? Every Circle D convertor I've installed has a minimum of .250" or more clearance between the flywheel and flexplate and has to be shimmed.
Thanks
Yes, we are working on a new billet front design that would make them about 1/8" longer. Thanks for the feedback.
Chris
I just wanted to give props to the professionals at Circle-D. Glenn and David
rebuilt my tranny and Chris reworked my TB stall to a 3000.The tranny/converter are bad a$$. Anybody looking for a top notch shop in Houston Circle-D is it. These guys know about customer service from the initial inquiry for a build to the time you drive off. Thanks guys you have my business.
Perfect, thanks for the reply! :)Quote:

I am so sorry, I just noticed you posted this. Hopefully you are still in the market for a converter. I only offer a Stage I single and a Stage III multi for the 4L80E. We do have them in 245MM or 258MM so we can build what ever you need. Please shoot me a PM with some truck details or give me a call at the shop.Quote:

Not a problem. We can do a 258MM with the multi disk, then add a nice trans cooler. You will be able to tow the 6K, no problem. The 258MM will couple nicely down low, keeping the heat down when not in lock up. When you are on the highway you will be in lock up and the multi disk is on, no worries there!!Quote:

Huh? The 6L has not trouble at all behind a 403 horse stock engine which is more than most people running modded 5.3's.
Anyone get a 6L to easily work in a swap? Don't think that's working either unless you swap the 6.2 and all the harness and computer.
Are you having trouble with the 6L in the Denali or are you just looking for converter options?? ^^^^
Who are you talking too? Stock converters behind the A6 tranny are not burning up. It is the aftermarket "Higher" stalls that are lasting maybe "weeks" in the vehicle. I have seen 600+rwhp going thru a "stock" A6 setup with NO problems. Put a Yank or Prescision or anybody elses converter in the vehicle and it goes to the crapper. Lockup issue's, flare shifts, no lockup, etc....Quote:

It would be a whole new thread about what is causing it in the tranny.
Not sure what the shots were for 'cause you could have just said "YES".
Thanks for the reply.
We have built a lot of 6L80 converters. We have them in the 245MM or 258MM version. Single disk or multi disk. I send a lot of them over to Australia for the Holden. Those guys really like to race and I love the accent. But back to tour question. When we were first testing them, the tuners were having some issues, bumping the rev limiter and not shifting. Most of that is worked out now and we have some of the fastest G8 and Holdens out there. Not real sure if that answers your question, but I have not had any burn up. Just some shifting problems because of the higher stall.
As far as the stock verter in the 6.2 with the 6L80, it will be the 300MM low stall. So same converter they were using in the 4L60, just setup for the 6L80. Probably rated at 1500-1700.
Chris
That is what I wanted to hear Chris. I guess Yank and the others need to buy your converters and learn your secrets. LOL. Can you loosen up one about 500 or so rpm's for the wife's Denali? Not looking for anything crazy just alittle bit more take off and better MPG's.Quote:

Here are a few pics of the CNC equipment.

Send Chris a Pm
what can you do for a 4l60e LT type. i want a 2500-3k stall converter in my 1997 tahoe.
What about a custom converter to mate an LS to a th400?
Just ordered my cir-d billet 265mm for my 4l80E. Great customer service from chris! I know $1000 is a lot for a converter... but you have to pay to play, and i don't mind paying for quality. I just witnessed a $650 TCI converter blow apart behind a 600hp 6.0 last week....
i ordered mine friday. got it monday.
Hey Chris havent had a chance to call u...can u Pm the price on a 4000-4200 stall for a 6L90E....i saw u had the 6l80e listed dont know if they are the same i heard the output shaft is bigger on the 6L90E??
Zach, make sure you get the triple disk!Quote:
