Was looking to buy about a 3500 tc, was looking at the TCI one for the 4l60e, anyone have any good or bad luck with them? I know yank and vig are the way to go, but thats another 300~.

 

I'd just save up a little more to get a yank, or a vigilante.

 

Im useing a CC and I cant "save" any because im paying the CC off, I dunno, ill talk about it and see what happens, our cars require a 10 inch converter right?

 

I got a performabuilt with my tranny. It is awesome. Feels like stock, until WOT.

 

In general terms, the size (diameter) of the converter is related to the stall speed. Smaller converters have higher stall speeds. Most of the time, you will end up with a 10". But anything from an 8" to an 11" or 12" would "fit".

You'll be fine with the TCI unit a very good friend of mine has one and he loves it versus the same rated stall that came from a manufacturer listed above (which was junk from day one and the builder of the convertor basically told him his tranny and car was junk thats why it didn't work). He beats on his car all the time and races it just about every weekend then drives it to work.

I have a half dozen 7" convertors and they range in stall from 7200 to 8500 for the Comp Eliminator car, to give you an idea of how size almost goes hand in hand with stall speeds.

 

Thank you!

Thank you aswell nothing like a nice information / personal experience post.

EDIT: iv decided to hold off on the converter, because if I do get the converter, chance of breaking the rear is high, and if it breaks no way will I have money to fix it/buy 12bolt. Also, if the tranny breaks ill also be in bad shape. Also quality converter is going to cost 750$ or so.
