Might as well add Circle D to that list as well! All the converters you have mentioned are well known. I myself have many customers running converters form Yank, Circle D and FTI that are all happy with their choice. I would contact each of them and make your decision based on what you get out of the conversation. I would say the most popular choice from the ones you have mentioned are the yanks.

As far as a multi disc is concerned if you run an efficient converter there really is not a need to lock a TC under WOT. Hope this helps you out some. Vince

We would be glad to help you spec a converter. Just fill out the "Ask Chris" form on my site and I will get back to you. The Multi Disk debate is tough one, we an go over the pro and cons and see if it is right for you after I get your specs.

I got a circle d 3200 tight fit converter. love every bit of it. its in my daily and its great. Best bang for the buck and the slogan breaker of "you get what you pay for". Chris was super helpful and kept me updated on every question i had. I recommend them to everyone. Good luck with the build. Chris.
