FTI 9.5in Ford C6 Spragless Mud Racing Converter - 1.375in Pilot - 3600 Hard Hit Stall

The 1.375-inch pilot on this FTI Performance torque converter is a key detail for mud racing applications, ensuring a solid connection with the crankshaft. This 9.5-inch converter is built specifically for the Ford C6 transmission and is designed for the unique demands of mud racing, featuring a spragless design that eliminates a potential failure point under extreme conditions. It's engineered to handle a hard stall speed of around 3600 RPM, allowing your engine to build boost and power effectively before launching.

FTI Performance builds these converters with a focus on durability and performance for racing. The spragless design is a notable choice for mud racing because it removes the internal one-way clutch (sprag) that can be a weak link when dealing with the immense torque and shock loads common in this type of motorsport. This means the converter's internal components are more robust and less likely to fail when you need them most. The 9.5-inch diameter is a common size that balances efficient torque multiplication with a reasonable rotational mass, contributing to the converter's overall responsiveness.

When installing this converter, remember that it's designed for a specific type of racing and may require adjustments to your engine's tuning to achieve optimal performance at its 3600 RPM stall speed. It's crucial to ensure your transmission is in good condition and properly cooled, as high-stall converters can generate additional heat. This converter is not CARB approved and cannot be shipped to California.
