    You get what you pay for. If a converter goes out, the trans is probably going with it.

    Why don't you use a stock tq conv until you can afford to get the circle d you want?

    I thought about it but the stock verter had black oil in it and I just cleaned my trans out pretty damn good so I didn't want to get that crap back in there again. I dunno, I heard you can have the verters flushed but that's, what, $80 bucks or so?

    Call Yank and see what they say about that, ask them what company, then ask Rev what company makes the converter.

    im pretty sure yank makes their own converters in house. i know for a fact that circle-d makes their converters in house. Chris at C-D may be able to answer the question.

    That was a good idea Allen. I don't know why I didn't think of that. Probably all the carb cleaner fumes lately. I think I've ruled Yank out though because after researching their warranty, "non stock tuning" to a pcm will void the their warranty.

    Screw that. Who in their right mind would put a high performance $1000k stall speed in a vehicle that has stock tuning and torque management. That is bs. I'm sure they make a great product as many have suggested but If they are unwilling to stand behind their verters if it fails because somebody has a tune (which I'm assuming most people who buy them do) I think I'll go elsewhere. Unless the rest of the torque converters I'm researching (Edge, Revmax, Circle D, Hughes, The Converter Shop and PI)have some fineprint I haven't found, Yank seems to be the only high-end converter with this policy.


    Anybody here use edge? I like there renewable warranty. You pay $90 every 13 months and send the verter in to be "cut and clean" and you will never fall out of warranty

    Thanks for the input guys!
