I got a trailblazer stall in mine and i didnt feel much of a difference. Maybe i should spring for the yank

I put one in mine several months ago and love it. It brake stalls to 2500 and I see 1-2 # of boost at laungh. It made a HELL of a difference in my truck.


If I could have got a Yank for &#036;375 then I would have bought one but at the time they were around &#036;600. I got the trailblazer converter for &#036;250 to my door, no exchange.

A converter is probably one of the most important mods to install for launching and 1/4 mile times. Not only does it drop the 60&#39;, it allows for a higher shift extension.

Ya bud, I hope to be in the 13&#39;s with 5psi.

SC, we&#39;ll get you there, lol, I know your truck has a lot of potential.

see you soon

Agreed. There are a lot of people out there doing bolt on mods that end up costing a couple of thousand &#036; and a converter swap would have given them more 1/4 mile performance than all of their bolt on&#39;s. IMO

That is great. I have a TB converter in mine it was really tight till I power braked it a few times it still is not too loose but you can tell a difference.
A buddy of mine drove mine (keep in mind this is a 1968 pickup) and he came out all smiles. One of his compliments was how great it shifts. He has a NBS truck so the combinations are very simular and he said they dont compare.

Ok Allen, I know I need one soon. 2800, 3000 or 3000+ ?????

Took a bodyman for a ride and he asked me where I hid the turbo at. He said he felt the truck kick in at 3000 RPM and never came down until 100 mph when I let off.... :burnout: :eek:

Your cam profile was setup with a converter in mind, so ya, finally getting one in will make a huge difference.
This is just my opinion, also, drivability isn&#39;t as important to me, nor is gas mileage, so with that being said, a 3000stall will make that truck haul ass&#33;&#33;&#33;&#33;
Once it&#39;s in there, it will effortlessly accelerate and stay about 2600-2800rpms during a semi aggressive take off which is very close to your power band. Normal driving will be fine and wot will be awesome&#33;

let us know&#33;

Put it in now. Either way it will eventually die, so enjoy it now&#33;&#33;&#33;
