    Sounds cheap, if it is in good shape great deal! I paid a bit more for my 3600, of course mine is better!

    That's a good price as long as it wasn't in a car when the trans blew....

    3 disk or single disk?

    if 3 disk that is one hell of a converter

    with the pi converters, instead of brakestalling the converter, youll see best results leaving off idle and allowing the converter to flash. brake stalling doesnt seem to get as good 60 or hit as hard as it you were flashing it.

    i ran a fbody 3600 in 06 it stalled to 3800 in my truck

    it ain't that I'm too big to listen to the rumors, It's just that I'm too damn big to pay attention to 'em..That's the difference
