No , You have the converter that has the ring gear on it , some companies will CUSTOM build one , BUT it will be over 600.00, Stay mild with the cam and a112 at min lobe center , if you would build a 250 , then yes that converter would workecho1955":2481fpt3 said:FalconSedanDelivery":2481fpt3 said:If you pick a cam that lopes , YOU WONT like the way it runs , unless you spring for the converter change .

The high mount starter uses a variation of the C4 that has the ring gear welded on to the torque converter.
Not sure if what you're looking at would work.
Again, if you're using an automatic transmission you don't want a rough idle cam. They don't make enough vacuum, AFAIK. the 112° LC cam is recommended for an automatic for that very reason, and although it does have a bit of a lope below 1000rpm I can't say for sure that in my case it's due to the cam, and not something else. BTW I am running the 264/274/112° cam. You might look at the 268/274 from Classic Inlines, it's just one step up.

the 256 is stock diration, BUT the lift is not! it's the desired lift, this should give more low end like your looking for, and your roller rockers should come in a 1.65 ratio makeing the power band come 500rpm sooner, so the 256 would look like
256: 256/256 - 202/202 - .495/.495 - 112* - 1000-4800
It's the only one I found with a 112* lobe center. should make plenty of vacuum!

FalconSedanDelivery":suqewx51 said:Unfortunately , Changing the year of the trans WON"T help with the expensive converter deal , only if you had a late low mount 200 or a 250 would it get cheaper,the reg 144-200 use the same Converter / flexplate deal ,
the 70.5 models being the best C-4's but they to still use the same style as you already have
