Totally different. What I'm doing requires no special torque converter. Basically manipulating charge pressure to raise the stall. I'm not the first to do this and there are other designs out there, and have not been able to get any detailed information on the other systems or there performance. This is what drove me to develop my own. I designed features into this set-up that I thought would give me the most optimal results while remaining integrated into the factory iron valve body and pump. From what little I know, mine is unique in the way I used the valving and existing valve body features to contain the system. For now, I'm keeping the details to myself and a select few until I decide how to present this system. It may be added to Chris new TH400 book s I don't want to undermine his effort.
I'm using Chris's (CK performance) trans brake RMVB body as the donor. I like the short 3rd gear passages and simply trans brake circuit. Plus it leaves me with a lot of opportunity to manipulate the unused passages for my device. I'm building a spare unit and would like to get one out to a high profile racer that could do some testing and constructive feedback. It would require changing the pump, and valvebody and separator plate as well as the external solenoid/TB valve.
