Got an email into BTS about the torque converters they use, the Precision Industries "Stallion". Looks like a whale of a T.C. with a 5 year unlimited warranty. I always get nervous when no one puts prices on their websites....
I've heard some good things about the Troyer Tranny cooler: Troyer Performance Does anyway have any information on these? They're a good deal more money than the TruCool, they are fan driven, thermostatically controlled which makes logical sense...but is more effort and more things to fail. -Kevin

That costs more than the TruCool unit. Have you read user reviews of the TruCool? You can google and find forum links where people have posted their results with the TruCool Max. I think that would get you to what you need. And like you said already, there's less to fail on the TruCool.

make sure you get a good tc. I had a local company build mine and they took me thru the shop and showed me everything they do and the benefits. Improved oiling torrington bearings etc. really to help with heat. The tech told me all ford tenasmissions have problems with heat and if you do alot of heavy towing they advise doubling up on the factory cooler. Great bunch of guys (Landis Torque Converters Leola PA)

I was at my Ford mechanics home shop last Chirstmas. He had a 32 row cooler he just handed to me and told me Merry Christmas (LOVE THAT GUY
 ). He's a talker for sure, but will help you out in any situation you have.My rebuild seems fairly cheap from what i have read other people being charged. Mine was rebuilt with a BD torque converter and shift kit for $2100. I think once I get that cooler installed, I'll be set.

Stay away from ATS. I just had one crap out on me that was "rated" at 750 hp and 1,500 ft-lbs fo torque. I t lasted 103,000 miles. Less than 20,000 of those miles were over 500 hp. I now have a BTS.

Be sure you're not confusing driveshaft bind with a transmission slip. Having lift kit and/or loose carrier bearing will cause bad vibration that gets worse under load and clears up faster you go.
