Torque converter=v.expensive, Flex plate=much cheaper.

but to get to both you need to remove the gearbox.

I've never broken a converter, but broke a flex plate a yank pickup once, but when you get the box out, it'll be obvious if the flex plate is broken, if it looks OK, then you're in for the torque converter.

nobody said it would be cheap, but well worth it
