Okay, AW70, 50K miles on it since rebuild, trans fluid is perfect, but I'm experiencing "shudder" up to 2100 RPM. Please note this car does have a manual trans rear end ratio. The fluid is bright red, no leaks, fluid level is perfect. Engine and trans mounts are 3 months old, and the ECU is throwing no codes, ie 111.

I have experienced torque converter failure on V8 Chevy products from the late 80s and it feels like its exactly the same. The thing that has me confused is that I have NEVER heard of a 240 smoking a torque converter! Could it be due to the rear end ratio causing an excessive load at lower RPMs?
