finding a TB converter

[beingblueeyes]

anyone know a good on line place or off line to pick one of theses up? I’ve looked at all the napa/car quest/advance auto's around here and nothing even in the pick and pulls and still nothing. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Autozone. I bought mine a while back and have loved it for the price. No problems yet. Just tell them it's for a 2002 Trailblazer I-6 and not a Silverado. They won't know by looking at your core.

I've always thought it was a lot of work to just go a little higher in stall. If you're going to go through the labor, might as well through a circle-d/ yank in there.

I would buy it from here. http://www.circledspecialties.com/

It is going to be a lot of work but for under 200$ to get an extra 1000 rpm of stall and have OE reliability it’s a win win in my eyes. I’m sure circle-d makes one hell of a fine product but for what I want for a stall and what I want to spend a tb converter sounds good. If there was 2 trucks that were the same and you gave the owners each 400$ to spend on a converter what trucks going to be faster?

TB stall $200
ls6 cam and springs $170ish
gaskets ect. $30
OR
circle-d stall $395
one beer $5

don’t mean to snap I’m also revising my resume right now and its going for shit

I'll take the Circle D stall anyday because you're not going to be able to install the cam for free even if you can get it at that price. Some people think the cost of the part is it...you have gaskets and other things plus what if you screw something up during the install? Oil for the transmission isn't cheap either.
