ARRGHHH! I can't decide...!

I'm going with the Yank 2600. The primary reason, besides price, was the towing capacity. I didn't feel like putting out the 5 bills for the Fuddle AND a cooler to tow the boat around. From what I have researched, the Fuddles are almost bullet-proof and the customer service and warranty seems pretty good. If I didn't tow then thats what I'd get.

Thanks Spin.

As of right now, I&#39;m planning on a Fuddle 3000. I don&#39;t tow and only haul stuff in the bed occasionally.

Although there are some used Vig 3200&#39;s available. Kind of nervous about a used converter though.

Anyone ever get a used one and have good results?

Think a 3200 would be too much for a daily driver?

Depends on how tight the convertor is. Mine was made to spin up quickly. I think that is something to do with the STR. I don&#39;t know what mine is but it&#39;s pretty loose. There are a lot of factors that go into a convertor and I believe that if you go with the Fuddle you will be happy with the results since they build it for your truck and it&#39;s built for your needs. The guys at Vig would probably have a cow to know their 3600 stall is in a DD truck.

Yeah, I&#39;m not real keen on the idea of a used converter. I&#39;m 99% decided on the Fuddle. No 100%. No 99%.

Anyone ever see/use one of these?

After seeing the radix SS in chevy high perf. make countless passes on a Vigilante verter, i was sold, Yes it is pricey but its also a high quality heavy duty piece. i only wanted to do it once. I love the drivability and performance i get from it. I think that 2800 is perfect, id love to try a 3000 sometime, but im not sure how it would affect drivability if any, i can tow all day long and my wife cant tell there&#39;s a stall in it till she boots it down&#33;&#33; BTW watch out for some of the used vgilante&#39;s for sale as they might only be for the car setup and might not have the triple disc clutch setup youd want in your heavier truck.
