Caribou,
That is an excellent point, which brings me to the next question. When you have a
total break down of a torque converter due to excessive engine torque being delivered to the tranny, What portion of the converter fails due to this condition?
I wouldnt think that the little bit of additional ratio necessary to achieve 75 mph
at 2000 rpm would change torque converter load that much, but really not sure.
Right now I turn 2000 rpm at 70 mph.

I don't have the drawing of the transmission with me, but I remember seeing that all three elements of the hydraulic converter are interconnected via wet plate clutches and planetary gears. To speak simply, the intermediate flange/rotor of the coupler sees the total load of the engine when it is 'locked'. The wet plate clutches acting behind/after the converter should be much less sensitive to vibration under torque, comparing to the intermediate rotor of the converter. There was a replacement rotor mentioned by 'winter2' some time ago; this should be the best way to protect your wallet in case you want to add more power.

burn off a copy on cd and send it to you
 
Unless the file is gigantic, it would probably be easier to simply email it. Just a thought.

Caribou believe it or not I fully understand your description of the internal diagram
of the converter, and based on that discription I would say that the coupler section
of the flange rotor is probably what fails when you here the explanation of a Torque
converter sounding like (rocks rotating around in a can) What say you on this???
I sure would like to see a sketch of a cut away view of this beast.
I have also heard of something in relation to turbine like fins breaking away internally within the housing. Whats that refering to if you know??
Ok man thanks for the replies and take care until later.

tnilc99:
I just found this link (wikipedia) that may interest you:

There is also a PhD thesis somewhere on the web that defines a case study of our transmission...
