Description
BD Diesel
This Build-It Kit from BD Diesel Performance is intended for seasoned builders looking to rebuild a transmission using the same proven components found in BD performance transmission assemblies. Each kit includes essential rebuild parts and gaskets, with configurations ranging from stock horsepower applications up to advanced performance builds.
The included BD ProForce 3D torque converter is engineered with a strength-focused design that prioritizes balance, durability, and long service life. A CNC-machined billet cover resists warping and improper balancing while maintaining factory height. The clutch piston and damper assembly are designed for increased strength while retaining smooth, reliable vibration damping. A self-centering trapezoid clutch tooth design ensures proper alignment, reduced wear, and extended converter life.
Designed for experienced builders using the same components found in BD Diesel Performance transmission assemblies.
