Do you really believe that DACCO convertors will give you the same warranty as SunCoast,ATS or Goerand once they realize what your going to be doing with the truck?.
There is way more to whats going on inside a transmission to hold or make power than just you slapping in a converter and expecting it to hold,especially one from a copycat company.
I'll say it this way....
When you make a torque converter purchase a good comapny will ask you what your plans are for the truck and what power level you are going to be at to do what you want.They will then build both a transmission and a converter around your desired levels that should allow you to do what you want.There are times that things do fail even when built by the best but when its done right the first time usually its normal maintence to keep it rolling.
IMO a torque converter purchase is a very important decision to make for ones truck.Make a good choice and your going to lay power down with ease and make the driveline last however,make a bad choice and all you end up with is a long list of broken parts that can over run your wallet.With the torque converter being the most important part of a owners truck,why would you want to put second rate parts in it?.
Save your money and buy a good converter from one of the reputable diesel transmission builders out there,you will end up with less hassles and lower your chances on broken parts.........Andy

Precision is the ONLY converter i would suggest to anyone that is building a transmission. But as Hammer said the first question in my mind is "What are you going to be doing with your truck?" Way too much goes into the build of a properly setup transmission to just throw any preset converter into the truck and hope it works.
