Our Story

Built on Reliability and Trust

Since our inception operating as a small, family-owned converter shop in the 1960s, quality and service have been our guiding principles. Our founder Bob Marshall had a passion for mechanics and business driving his success as a competitive drag racer and leader in the parts business. It was his drag racing career that inspired much of the high performance product we manufacture today, and strong relationships were built in the automotive community through his passion for the sport. Continued high standards for our products function, fit and appearance are a key driver of what makes our product popular among rebuilders across the continent. Our Torque Converter shop continues to build and rebuild for the stock replacement and performance markets, and our parts department operates as a reliable source for rebuild kits and soft parts stocking everything for Powerglides to the modern day 10-speed.
