PRI 2016: ATI Brings Hot New Bolt Together Torque Converters

ATI Racing [1] showed off their brand spankin’ new eight-inch bolt together torque converters at PRI and we talked with JC Beattie and he gave us a glimpse into what the family company has been working on.

JC told us about their new eight-inch converters and lock-up converters, “We took the quality and reliability of our 10.5 inch torque converters and tailored it into an eight-inch version. It works with a large swath of current cars and transmissions currently on the market including six-speed, eight-speed and ten-speed transmissions that are now popping up on vehicles like the Camaro ZL1 and Ford Raptor.”
