Torque Converters are an essential part of a cars drivetrain. When picking one for drag racing there are a few things such as durability and performance of the converter are a few things to keep in mind. Few companies make converters that can handle the demand that racing requires.
TCI’s PRO-X Torque Converter is one of the converters that are very popular in drag racing. If you have ever wondered what makes these so great I have the perfect answer for that. Check out this behind the scenes look at the making of PRO-X Torque Converters. Be sure to check out the
full tour, but here is a quick review.
Bearing Surface - One key to the PRO-X torque converters ability to perform at levels well beyond the competition is the quality of the bearing surface true-ness. Before a torque converter can become a PRO-X converter, it must meet exacting standards to ensure excellent bearing load and life.
Furnace Brazing - OE torque converter turbine fins are loose fitting and can flex causing loss of power. All PRO-X torque converters feature furnace brazing of each individual fin – a time consuming process but one that is required to deliver the ultimate performance and durability.
Weld Final Look - This high quality weld is testament to the quality demanded of PRO-X Converter products.
Finishing Touch & Final Visual Quality Check - Each TCI PRO-X converter is coated with TCI’s proprietary HDT (Heat Dissipating Technology) coating, which helps reduce the operating temperature of the transmission. With all systems checked, the final approval stamp is applied, the TCI decal.
