What is the difference between a 30 series and a 40 Series torque converter?
The 30 series is rated for 2-8hp Engines and the 40 series is for 8-18hp engines. So if you’re using an unmodified predator 212 or other honda clones with a max power of 6.5hp or lower, then 30 series is for you, if you’re using a more powerful engine such as the Predator 420 then go for the 40 series.
How do I know what Comet clutch I have?
Identify the Shape. A V shaped belt indicates the unit is a TC88, 20, 40 or 44 Series – SYMMETRICAL Type. If the angles of each side of the belt are different, almost flat on one side – 2 1/2 degrees and angled 18 degrees on the other side, you have a 30 Series or an older CAT99 Series – ASYMMETRICAL Type.
Can you upgrade a torque converter?
There are other modifications that can be made to improve the performance of an automatic transmission, but swapping torque converters is by far the easiest and packs the most bang for the buck. As a rule, stock torque converters are too large in diameter and too heavy.
What is the difference between a 20 and 30 Series torque converter?
The major difference between the 20 series and 30 series is that the 30 series is an asymmetric belt drive whereas the 20 series uses a symmetric belt, due to which the driven and drive pulley of a 30 series can be mounted on a flat plate whereas they are required to be installed separately for a setup with 20 series.

How do I increase the stall speed on my torque converter?
A large cubic-inch engine will raise a given converter’s stall speed. Engines that produce more low-end torque cause a given converter to stall at a higher rpm. A heavy car with large diameter tires will raise effective stall speed as installed in the vehicle.
Can you adjust a torque converter?
Even though a torque converter can deliver different levels of torque at different rpm ranges, you’re still able to adjust it.
Why does my go-kart take off when I start it torque converter?
When a torque converter sticks, it doesn’t successfully disengage, which causes your go-kart to take off when it’s supposed to idle. This can happen when the weights inside the driving pulley get stuck in the grooves of the torque converter drum, the springs are too soft or the weights get dislodged.
