I would use one, but don't spray it or go over XXXHP(post opinion on power limitations).

Dacco Converters? Any experience? Reply accordingly. I am picking up a converter this month and considering cheaping out. Its either cheaping out or getting a vigilante.

Don't cheap out on the converter. I run a Yank after a lesser converter crapped out...twice, taking part of the tranny with it hte second time.
I still say go Yank or Vig.

i've heard guys swear by them. but i've yet to hear of a ls1 fbody guy use them. I don't know what to tell you. They sound like they have a really good rep. from all i've heard from. I almost got one, but went with TCI.

I know of a couple people who run dacco's in their strip cars.... I was gonna call about one for my truck but they told me that they didnt have any converters for 60E's with lock up clutches... I got tired of looking so I got a 9.5" PI Vig 3200 triple disk.... and a FLT-5 65E.... problems solved.

I got a Dacco 2500 converter installed in my LT1 by Cottman Transmissions. My car now runs 1.3 sec slower in the 1/4 mile and my 60' times got a tenth slower.
