Both brands are excellent.

I have had 2 Yank converters and both have been awesome. One of those two is currently in my car.

I had a PYE3400 but I wasn't making enough power to use that converter so I sold it to a guy that had a turbo full size truck and it worked great for him.

I now have a SS3800 and it is a blast. If you are doing a mild-wild cam and street drive the car you are going to want a 3600-4000 stall.

It will feel weird at first, then you will nail the throttle and blow the tires off the car and wonder why you didn't put a big stall in it sooner.

My car has had a bigger stall in it for 4 years and still has the stock cam....

Get a RevMax, just as good but much cheaper. Call them with the info on your car and they can suggest what might be Best for your needs.
