Default FTI converter

All I can say is thank you Fti. This converter and experience dealing with Fti was great. I had a personal best this weekend with a 1.383 sixty foot. Cam only ls1 camaro. If you in the market for a converter please give Greg and Fti a call.

What stall speed on your converter? I'll be in the market for one in Summer, something around a 3600 I think, I've been going back and forth between Yank and Circle D, heard good things about FTI though also and can't argue with a 1.38 60ft!

I, myself have an FTI 3500 that is the daily driver street friendly version. Costs about $750 after tax. When walking into the office, all I saw were pictures of ProMods popping the front wheels off the ground. This is when I realized that I came to the right place. I have been very happy with it.

nice 60' man, damn. I am also a fan/customer of FTI. I was going back and forth between PI and Yank and then got turned on to FTI and come to find out they were close to home. 2 years now on my 3600 converter and several long *** highway drives (10-12 hours one way) and not 1 single complaint!!!

I just ordered a potz ported TB from ebay yesterday. That's pretty much about the only thing we have in common other than both owning LS1 camaros.

Thanks for all of the great words. I-We at FTI take our converters very serious. performance is our game not some fancy marketing guru!!!!. Thank you all for being part of the FTI family of "winners". and if you wanna call and shoot the s**t give me a call. i am very busy but I make time for each one of my customers. If you are in town stop by and see our wall of photos or check out our line up of shop cars from a 8 sec nova to a mid 6 sec 205 mph dragster.;

Greg
