Construction & Design

This torque converter is meticulously crafted with a billet aluminum cover that provides exceptional rigidity and resistance to heat-induced warping. The furnace brazing process fuses components at a molecular level, creating a bond that withstands the intense thermal and mechanical stresses encountered during performance driving. Critical joints are reinforced with TIG welding to ensure long-lasting durability and reliability.

Triple Torrington bearings reduce friction and wear, promoting smooth rotation and extending the life of the converter. The multi-plate lock-up clutch design enhances engagement precision, reducing heat buildup and improving fuel economy during steady cruising conditions.

Installation & Fitment

The FTI Performance Street Racer torque converter is a direct-fit replacement for select Chrysler and Dodge vehicles equipped with 9.5-inch NAG1/722.6 transmissions. Compatible with factory transmission controls and lock-up solenoids, it requires no modifications for proper fitment. Installation involves standard transmission removal and torque converter replacement procedures.

Professional installation is recommended to ensure correct torque converter clearance and proper transmission pump engagement, which are critical for preserving transmission health and maximizing performance benefits.
