Default Yank SS 3600

I just recently installed my converter and i just wanted to tell everyone how the 3600 ss works. It takes off somewhat like stock but its around the 1300 to 1500 range. Stall speed is auctually around 3800. But like everyone told me, i already want more.
All in all its a great verter.
I give it a 4 out of 5

Awesome, I love mine. I only got about 50 miles on it and it's sitting out front with a blown tire and i'm feeling withdrawal...

As soon as the drag radials are on, it's hammer time

That is in the tuning. You must be running rich as hell.

What do you mean, "has to rev all the way to get there?" 78 miles to a tank?? On a 13 gal fill-up, that's 6 mpg

You should be getting much better than 6mpg with that cam. Your tune sounds way off.

I talked to David at Mti and he helped me with everything and told me he isnt going to give me the car back until everything is fine.. it might be that i have a defective stall converter.. so it will be taking care of in the end thanks again for all of your opinons and knowledge
