Transtar Torque Converters?

Has anyone tried one of the torque converters from Transtar Industries? I was thinking about the model #FM64RX-S3 for my my 2000 Ex 7.3 It has a Magnaflow exhaust and Edge Evolution 2 programmer w/6637 air filter.

I use Transtar converters in my shop when I cant use my main reman guy. Never have a problem with any of there converters. Stay away from Dacco converters there junk!

That converter will work great for your truck, the lower stall and the multi disk is a great improvement.

I don't even think Transtar makes the converter...I think they just put their name on it...not 100% sure though
I've been using Pro Torque F-59HD multi clutch converters in all the "big" Fords for the last year & everyone has been real happy with it.
Check them out if you want www.protorque.com
Ask for Joe or Jeff if you have any questions. Tell them Justin from Huntington Transmissions told you about them

I had a Dacco strip out on one of my jobs 3 weeks ago. The van was 8 hours north of my shop.
