Good that your cars are getting faster and faster with revmax converters. I loved my 95 Lt1 with the revmax 3200 and as soon as my wife gives me the nod I am going to do a 3600 Revmax stall in the Vette.

When I built my brother's LQ4 Monte Carlo SS, I called up RevMax and they helped me spec out a converter for it. I ended up ordering a RevMax 3400 nitrous converter.

First time out on the bottle, the car went 11.69....full weight 88 Monte SS, 4L80E, 8.5" with 3.42 gears, and a 28" tire.

THE CONVERTER MAKES THIS CAR.

It is a ton of fun to drive off the bottle, and will rip the tires loose at will, even with the 80E and tall rear gear. I'd estimate that the converter has ~4000-5000 miles on it at this point, and zero problems.

I've got a Yank in my own truck...but doing it all over again, I'd go with a RevMax...it does everything my Yank does at a fraction of the cost.

I have the exact same converter as the op and liked it for the little while I had it... Broke the pump fail on my part. But when I get the trans running right again I look forward to some new track numbers.

installed the built 4L65 with the revmax stage 5 converter built for boost. put about 200 miles on it already

i must say it feels very nice and tight!!

the car gets moving with less throttle compared to before.

i will get a video of me driving it to give you guys an idea.

THX REVMAX.

With a car around 400 flywheel HP, I would like to get your 700r-4 9.5" stage 3 lockup converter. Its a car that gets driven maybe 2-5 times a month, less than 5,000 miles a year. Do I need to get the woven carbon fiber lockup clutch? Also, when is the next sale? Or maybe a military discount? Worth a shot. Im really looking forward to getting one of these.
