Default PT4200 or UY4600???

I currently have a pt4200 converter in my stock internal (not for long) car, the 4200 is great all around as for my first stall of any kind, but i'm wondering how much i would/could benefit by moving to a UY4600 in the car. the car has run 11.40s with the pt4200, but is getting heads/cam and some other parts soon, as well as a cage etc....any input would be great, thanks

The PT-4200 will work good with the H/C (That's what I run). It will stall a little higher due to the extra HP.

With a decent H/C setup and with that car's raceweight, it should have no problems getting into the 10's with that converter.

lane has a honda or something as far as i know. but my Z28 is capable of MUCH lower ETs than it has currently gone with just some more suspension mods and lightening it up a bit. 10s with H/C are NOOOOOO problem at all.

You won't be any faster with a UY 4600. Keep what you have and invest your money elsewhere.
