Recently did a bunch of upgrades to a customers car. It a 2005 and installed PRC 225 as cast heads and a Texas Speed Tsunami V2 camshaft, CHE Rockers, upgraded pushrods and lifters etc. Texas speed suggests a 3600rpm stall speed torque converter. Customer got the FTI Performance #SRLS6082. Which is a 3600rpm "hard hit" billet lock-up for 4l60e. Got the car running and everything with the engine upgrades and now have it apart for putting the converter in. I got the stock converter out last night and just before i was about to fill the new converter up with fluid I find that the 3 bolt pattern circle on the converters have different size bolt circle diameter. Looks to me like the FTI Performance SRLS6082-C is the right part number and not the one he got. only difference having the "C" at the end of the part number.
Im wondering if 2005 vettes with the auto trans are limited to the torque converter bolt pattern circle diameter or is there adapters or torque converter drive plates with a standard 4l60e bolt circle for the 3 bolts. Im hoping to find a solution to this or perhaps anyone know who has a 3600rpm stall converter for a 2005 corvette, in stock and able to ship today? A car that is completely apart on my lift, with no parts in sight anytime soon is a bummer but reaching out here in hopes of gettin something figured out.
2005 C6 A/T torque converter is 1 year only.
You're going to be better off paying for next day air to get the correct converter, than trying to change everything to run a different converter.
Sorry this thing is occupying valuable lift space, but going with the correct converter is going to make everyone happier with the end results.

just my 2 cents.
Thanks for response, we next overnighted a FTI triple disc 3800rpm, summit had 1 in stock. Got it installed this afternoon and just got back from doing some more tuning on the car. Exactly what it needed
