here is what they posted about the 4.7....
they have them priced at 460, 37 for shipping and 125 core charge. sothere is only a 10 dollar diffrence i dont see why they could not enclude it in on the deal. ill find out.

4.7L Performance TQ Converters (Pricing coming shortly)
Much like the new Hemi Converter but decidedly different, the new 4.7L Fully Rollerized converter shows a massive torque and efficiency upgrade just like its big brother the 5.7L Hemi. To aid in the power production, we also dialed in more negative rake on the impeller to give the 4.7L powered Dodges a real serious HP/TQ increase. As with our other converters, it comes with full carbon lock up clutch which allows towing in OD and lasting performance without a load in tow. They also are available in painted or “Stealth” depending on customer’s preference which means that only you and APS will know that your running a performance converter as its outward appearance is not distinguishable from stock. We will be collecting the cores just like the HEMI as these 4.7L cores are not all that plentiful in the aftermarket at this point, but the good news is that big gains can be had with this converter on your N/A, Supercharged, Turbocharged, or Nitroused 4.7L.

ok guys here is the email i sent to them and there response.

MY EMAIL
hello i am interested in your hemi converter but am wanting to know a few
things about it. will the converter still be a lock up style converter? and
what can you do for shipping if i buy 2 and will you give me a better price
if i buy 2 at the same time. i am also a member of a dodge website
(dodgetalk.com here is a link to a post i started...
http://www.dodgetalk.com/forums/showthread.php?p=1379942&posted=1#post137994
2 ) and people there have highly recommended your converters. would you be
interested in doing a group buy on some converters if i could get you a few
members interested. thank you for your time and have a great day
chris


there response
I will combine shipping if reasonable... I think its best to send them
separate to lessen the chance of damage to one or both units... the
Converter will still Lock-Up and function for everyday use along with give
you the kick in the behind you want for High Performance Use... Group Buy =
yes and I will give you money even off the sale price for 2 units... in fact
if you get 2 I will give you group buy price since we are prepared to do a
Group Buy... Call Wayne 408-205-8500 for details

it will mutiply the torque that your engine produces. and will actually make your truck start moving at a higher RPM (stock is 2300 RPM and this one will be at 2500-2800) so you will be more in your power band when the truck starts to move allowing you to take off faster. if your into drag racing it will cut your 60 foot times down ultimatly dropping your et. if you like to run on the street it will give you better accelleration. talk w/ hemi450hp he has one (diffrent brand but simmilar)

I think he was assuming that the converters would be shipped to the same location. We need to tell him that this is a group buy for several people all over the country, then lets see what kind of deal we get.

ok guys i talked w/ Wayne at aps and he is willing to do the group buy. now the numbers are not 100% accurate(he said he will let me know by monday the exact price) yet but we talked about 419 for the converter (a $100 savings off the normal price) and 75 for the core charge.( thats a $50 savings on the core) we are also talking about doing a GB on shift kits as well. APS has just relised (2 days ago) a billet converter for the hemi and wants to get it in on this as well. but they are more $$$ he was thinking about 520 (i think i cant remember on this one) he said he will open the GB up for all motors (5.7 and 4.7) as well as on the chargers and anything else that he makes a converter for. i was really impressed w/ his costomer service. he wanted everyone to know that the regular price on the converters is 520 they are on special right now for the 450 price they have on the website. but he said he will knock off a little more.(off the sale price) im really hopeing that i can get as many people involved in this as i can.ill start another post and get a list going.
