Florida Torque Converter Introduces 9.5 Billet Series Torque Converters

Florida Torque Converter built its reputation on high-torque multiplication converters. Now they’ve turned their attention to developing a series of 9.5-inch billet cover, street strip converters for non-lockup GM 350 and 400 Turbo Hydramatics.

Each converter is custom built to customer specifications with variety stall speeds available depending upon the application. The Florida Torque Converter 9.5 Billet Series converters feature a unique billet front cover, Sonnax one-piece design anti-ballooning impeller hub, furnace brazed fins and Torrington needle bearing thrust washers, Chrome-moly steel turbine hub with hardened splines for strength and lubrication holes to promote oil flow and reduce temperatures and steel front cover (with removable pilot) for increased strength and resistance to ballooning. It is available in horsepower ratings up to 1,000hp.

Florida Torque Converter’s 9.5 Billet Series is the perfect street/strip torque converter in that it is race-ready, yet provides the highest torque multiplication factors of any converter available. This means you can get the desired performance at a lower stall speed and excellent down-track coupling efficiency.

All 9.5 Billet Series converters are built with state-of-the-art cores originally designed for high horsepower and peak efficiency. Florida Torque Converter’s proprietary manufacturing equipment ensures precise internal tolerances and perfect balance.
