Couple of videos of my car.

I know i'm pretty late but here's some videos i took today (also posted in the lounge), as you can tell my converter is having some issues at around 5800rpm in 2nd gear. I contacted Yank and they said send it back and they will give me a new replacement, i just want to make sure that's the problem before i send it back.



Cold startup and idle.

What was your trans temp when making those videos? The engine isn't even at operating temperature yet

Engine temp was 190, i don't even leave my driveway until engine temp reaches 180. Don't pay attention to the factory temp gauge because it always reads 125 or so, if you notice on the first video i have an aftermarket Autometer water temp gauge on the left. I don't know what the trans temp is because i don't have a gauge, it runs very cool though, i'm constantly checking, touching, smelling my trans fluid after each drive.
