: lm looking on ebay for a 1.4 teleconverter in k-mount. what is a realy good third party teleconverter brand? l was thinking about tamron SP but my understanding of them is that with Tamron adaptall, the teleconverter will fit my k-mount however only tamron lenses will fit the tamron teleconverter.
: any idears know of a good quality converter?

If you are looking for performance tele converters are not the way to go. A cheap longer lens will outperform most "tele converted" good lens's. BTW You have misunderstood the Tamron thing completely the adaptal mount is not s "tele converter" its just a mount. A converter for k mount lens will have both male and female mounts and therefor fit any K mount lens by any maker.
