[QUOTE="kyle43335, post: 611821, member: 270"] stock converters are triple disc already. they are plenty strong. as tadd even stated, the 450-550 chassis trucks are heavier, stiffer suspension,and really no side wall give in the 19.5 tires. i would have to agree that all these factor in in your situation. what i would do is this. option A= run a stock converter,and take the converter springs from the shift kit out. leave the main pump regulator spring upgrade in, so that pressure spikes are out of the equation. option B= run a billet front cover converter(for balloning reasons) with everything else stock. stock stall,etc, etc. with everything else stated in option a. this will give you alittle added strength, but still not beef things up to the point that you do not have any cushion/ give in the driveline. lets face it. your 450 isn't a race vehicle. lets stop beefing it up like one.your 250 can be used for that. tune the truck to a modest power level, that will far surpass the capabilities of a stock 450 and call it a day.
