Default Advice on converter

I am currently running a VIG 3200 stall. My car is a cam only with stock 3.23 gears. I am asking guys that have done a swap of this sort or someone that may know. What gains, if any, do you see when going from a Vig 3200 to a Yank SS4000 without doing any other mods. Track times before and after would be nice to see. Its a lot of money to spend if no one is noticing any difference when switching between stalls. Thanks in advance.

Your 60ft and 1/8th mile should improve for sure. Maybe knock .2-.4 off.

Most people start off with 32-3600s and end up going to a 4-4400 stall

I'm pretty sure yank could restall your current converter. If they can't Circle D and FTI might which would save some coin. Or even Vig lol

It was night and day going from a SY3500 to SS4000.
Plus SS4000 has 6,000 rpm shift extensions!!!
