wagner Posted May 5, 2015 Report Share Posted May 5, 2015 I need to get the billet faced Circle D converter in my car tightened up, like a bunch. Is there a good local shop that can do this? I know of a place up on BFE outside of Mt Vernon my dad uses, but if I can find a good shop in the Columbus metro area I will use them. I don't want a place that will have a slow turnaround time either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cordell Posted May 5, 2015 Report Share Posted May 5, 2015 Just don't go too far the other way, it flashes to about 5k rpms, we just need it to flash to about 4k. That's probably just making it about a 3400-3500 stall assuming the efficiency doesn't change. Do you want me to call Circle D? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nickey4271647545519 Posted May 5, 2015 Report Share Posted May 5, 2015 Only one I know of is Quick Draw, but again they're out in BFE outside Mt. Vernon. But he does build/restall very well. 330-276-2831 32740 Township Rd 130, Killbuck, OH 44637 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nickey4271647545519 Posted May 5, 2015 Report Share Posted May 5, 2015 Hard Shift in Johnstown? http://www.hardshifttransmissions.com/ Last time I was in there they didn't have anything to do converters. Could have changed though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Vulcan900 Posted May 5, 2015 Report Share Posted May 5, 2015 I was in there last week, they still dont do anything with converters. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was doing some research this morning and those ranges seem to be close. Lots of people were going with the Yank 3600-3800 stalls. If you get a chance give them a call, or I can shoot him an e-mail if you send all the original specs of the converter to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cstmg8 Posted May 5, 2015 Report Share Posted May 5, 2015 I've always heard good things about circle D's turn around and customer service. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wagner Posted May 8, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 8, 2015 Since there are no real good local options it looks like I reached out to Circle D, hopefully they will follow up soon so I can get a timeline rolling. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DTA09 Posted May 8, 2015 Report Share Posted May 8, 2015 Quick draw can normally do one week turn around if you call him and let him know your time line. Jason is a great guy to deal with. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just now realized Quick Draw is the guy who does my dad's stuff. I might give him a call and see what's up. Circle D quoted me over $250 to tighten the converter plus shipping.

He got it on a Friday and shipped it back out on Monday after telling him the time line we was looking for. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wagner Posted May 15, 2015 Author Report Share Posted May 15, 2015 Let me know how it goes. Well he got back to me and quoted me $170 to change the stall. I asked him a couple other questions and as soon as I hear back I think I'm going to go with Jason. He seems to really know his stuff and is very nice.

On3Performance Posted May 21, 2015 Report Share Posted May 21, 2015 Mike in Dayton built me a converter in 2 days from a pile of parts. Im sure he can help you out if you were to ship the converter to him. Over the top nice guy, might give him a call 937-903-6442 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
