The factory 10R60 torque converter is capable but not ideal for modified engines or bigger power adders. The Circle D Ford HP Series 10R60 Torque Converter starts with a modified factory core and upgrades it with a CNC machined billet stator and custom impeller modifications, giving your 2020+ Explorer a converter that launches harder and holds up to real power while still driving nice on the street.
Precision engineered for better power transfer. Circle D uses CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) modeling to design a 5th axis CNC machined billet stator that improves fluid flow and torque multiplication over the factory piece. The impeller is fin recalibrated to work with the upgraded stator, and custom CDS internal clearances are set to optimize how the converter performs under load. Hand TIG welding is used throughout construction, which holds up far better over time than the factory stamped and glued assembly.
Built to launch harder and last longer. Torrington style bearings are used in place of the factory bearings, reducing friction and improving durability under repeated hard launches.
High-performance on the street and track Circle D designs this converter to have great performance but still have a comfortable ride and streetable manners so that you can enjoy your Explorer anywhere that you go. No need to have a dedicated racecar or track build with this converter, get groceries on Friday and break records on Saturday with your Explorer and the Circle D converter.
