Converter tested ! Well, we finally got some good weather and I've been able to drive the car around to get the suggested 150mi. (normal driving) on my YANK SS4000 Converter. What an amazing difference. I came out of the hole at idle (600rpm's.) and flashed the converter. The car SCREAMED through 1st. gear. Then I tried a rolling start at 30mph. and broke the M/T's loose again. I very impressed with the performance and the trans is working perfectly through all the gears including OD. Our local track opens in 3 weeks and I can't wait to see what change I get in performance. I'll post new results.

That is the "RECOMMENDED" break-in mileage as per YANK. No vids yet, I'll be workin on them next. Good luck with your converter. I'm sure your gonna love it!

WOOOO yeah i love my SS4000!!! wouldnt buy any other stall! ive cut 1.70 60ft's with a little spining out at our shity track, but it still ran good, esp for the D.A. we are at most of the time. im waiting on a MS3 and she is losing lots of weight and then going to a nice 1000ft d.a. track and going for 10.99 time slip cam only!

It takes some rpm's to get it moving (around 1500-1800) but once it shifts into 2nd gear the rest of the shifts including overdrive seem normal. When slowing down to make a turn or just slowing for a signal the downshift is a little sluggish. "BUT"......... for the feel of the car and the VERY NOTICEABLE take-off, I'll gladly sacrifice the difference. And in a few weeks the track opens and I'm hoping to see a gain in performance. Also my car is not a DD.

ive read a few people like to stall yanks up as much as possible on the brake to launch the best, and a couple have said lower RPM got better 60fts, so honestly you just need to test it out yourself.

Thanks, input is very much appreciated and I do understand every car and combo is different. What works for one may not work for another.
