Overview

Joining a late LS V8 transmission to an older Chevy V8, this converter carries a steel billet front cover and a custom stator. It is designed to run with a SuperMatic transmission.

It is built for Chevrolet Performance crate engine combinations, and balancing is done on every internal part and on the finished assembly. The fit list is specific, so check the engine against it. Stall speed is not listed.

Who it's for

A hot rodder swapping in a late-model automatic will find the application. Anyone rebuilding a stock drivetrain should confirm fit first.
