The reason for considering B&M torque converters boils down to performance. Higher stall speed is the key. A higher stall converter allows the vehicle to accelerate better from a dead stop and may provide tire-smoking performance. B&M offers a wide range of performance torque converters to fit almost everybody's needs. From the Tork Master, to the Nitrous Holeshot for street applications to the Quick 60 Race converters for racing, B&M has the right converter for your vehicle. All B&M converters are precision engineered, spin balanced and pressure tested.

B&M® specializes in performance automatic transmissions, torque converters, SFI-approved flexplates, legendary automatic shifters, precision manual shifters, and many other transmission products, including cast deep aluminum transmission pans, transmission coolers, and automatic transmission fluids. B&M Racing and Performance has been at the vanguard of the growing automotive aftermarket since the early 1950s. Racers themselves, B&M’s founders identified the needs of local racers and street performance enthusiasts and developed products to fill those needs. As the industry grew, so did B&M. And as racers went faster, B&M developed products to help them break the records they just set.
