Cruise o matic torque converter
« on: January 09, 2019, 01:44:32 PM »
Looking for some knowledge on torque converters for cruise o matic transmissions.  Searches turn up nothing other than stock converters.  Any reputable shops that could work the one over that I have?

Check with Broader Performance. He has a link on here I think, or the FE forum. He knows Ford trannies and will do you a good job..  I am not sure but a FMX converter might work with a Cruiso..If so there could be a higher stall version available.

The hub is different. FMX has flats on the hub like a C-4, C-6 AOD and the Cruise-O has lugs to drive the pump.  I use Precision of New Hampton Convertors in Iowa.  Dynamic is good too and I use them for certain models.  Either can customize a convertor for you.
