Are you thinking about buying one because of your issue you spoke of in that thread on the 'other' site, Chuck? If so, and while a new converter might resolve the issue, I think it's a 50/50 chance that you might be throwing money (at a new converter) at something that might not resolve your problems. That having been said, I wouldn't pay any more for a decent (new or rebuilt) converter than you need to. I don't know what the mileage is on your truck but the bottom line is its a stock Chrysler 46/47/48R tranny with some mileage on it...it was ticking the day it rolled off the a$$embly line floor. I think you could probably source a quality, rebuilt converter from a local vendor for less money.
EDIT: when your tranny pukes, you're going to need a new converter, then, so that's why I say I wouldn't spend any more than you have to for a quality rebuilt/new converter. I think you could find a quality rebuilt converter for less than $225. I don't think you'd need a billet job ($400+), either...that 360 doesn't make that much steam.
