Mike just came out with a few new lines last year. But it still wouldn't hurt to call.

LOL, Mike is always working on something. It is great folks recognize that he is an innovator with out peer. Other lines do not change from year to year... but Mike? He is always pushing the envelope.

Go to www.converter.cc to see what he is working on right now.

Can't always wait for the next best thing. There's always something better on the horizon!

Something new may come out, but I don't think you'll be disappointed with the PT4000.

For all out racing, the YTP 4200 and 4400 will be hard to beat.

Mike is experimenting with new stuff all the time for LS1s and other vechicles. You never know what will come out. For example, the SS line was originally conceived for high boost Buick GN cars but during testing it became appearant that it would be a very drivable high stall converter for the LS1.

After speaking with Mike, it sounds like he's going to thin down his line of converters in '04. Too many choices at the moment. Most likely, you will see only the SS, PS, and PT converters along with the highly regarded Truck/SUV converters.

You can't go wrong with a PT.

Surely he'll keep the SY line for the 'Vette guys (since so many of them run regular radial tires)?
