Tci4400 Vs Pt4000
Im not sure on which to get either the TCI4400 or the PT4000, i know almost everyone will say the PT4000, the only reason im considering the TCI4400 i because its $450, and the PT4000 is $625. I dont or wont be using much at the track but mostly street (highway or low roll) use. Right now the car has headers, lanes true duals, Speedtek F1 cam (230/226 .591/.569 114) , lid, and 315 nitto drag radials, and Robinson tunning.

I know i wont hook, i can easily hook now with the cam and every now and then i will spin them a bit so i know i will easily spin the drag radials once i get the stall, but you know what else can i do? there is no way i will be driving the car all the time on E/T's, some nights ill just want to cruise and run into a cocky 6spd. its not a daily driven car either but you get some power lose some traction, and i want to stall so its inevitable (sp). The thing im mostly after will be top end power. Also the only reason im considering the TCI is because its $450 slightly used and the PT4000 is about $625 used.

I have a used TCS4400 for sale as well. I used this in my Hawk for 800 miles or so. I had H&C and ET Streets. I cut a best of 1.58 spinning the tires. I loved the vertor, but now I am moving to a TH400 so this has to go. I know that Yank, TCI and TCS all make good vertors, you have to play around a little. I am asking $500 shipped on the 4400 and it is in the box flushed and ready to go. I never had one problem locking up or any shudder. I was/am very please with my vertor. Good Lucka nd PM me if u have any interest. Bear

Lynda, i have friends that have the PT4000, PT4400, PT42000 and they enjoy the efficiency of the PT series, i know i wont hook but like i said its inevitable (sp) since i want the converter, and there is no way i am going to make the mistake of going too small of a stall and take it out later. I saw a person selling a SS3500 (had it stalled low) and was thinking of purchasing it and sending it for restall to a 3800 but the STR is a little high, and i think its designed for more gear than 3.23's (which i will keep).
