What mods do you have, and what do you see yourself doing with the car in the future. If you plan on doing heads cam or something like that get a 4000. If not, the 3600 is good.

The Yank SS series is very well known and works very well while keeping nice street manners. I have been working with Dave at Yank for a few years now and have never been let down.

I say the SS3600 is a good all around NA converter and good for some N20 use as well. I would look at getting a 3.23-3.42 gear which would greatly improve overall performance.

do some searching and you will find tons of great feedback on the SS converters

let me know if you need one

I have lid intake and full exhaust ... also what about a vigilante stall.? One of my other friend recommended one of those. He said something about having two discs or something g like that, and that supposedly it makes it drive like stock. I really didn't understand what he was talking about so I have no idea lol.

I would say Yank SS3600 would be a good choice. If planning on a cam in the future go SS4k. I would also agree a gear swap would help. A 3.23 is a good balance of gear and traction, but 3.73s are better SOTP but a little hard to control off the line without an ET Street.

Don't forget Circle D, FTI, Vig, and PTC, all quality vendors.

I had an SS3600 in my LT1 car with 4.10s. That verter was amazing, dropped .6 seconds off of my quarter mile and added 2mph.
