Default Yank SS4000??

Thinking of this converter... or the 3600... Tell me your thoughts, experience. Would prefer comments from those who have had a similar set up.
2000 Firehawk...
Futral F11 cam
ported,polished,milled .59cc 243's
FAST 102
TSP long tubes, 3 in ORY,
Borla cat back
UD pulley
full bolt on's... One of the best tuners in TX!
Factory 323's ( for now)

this car is not a DD... also have built C5Z, Avalanche Z71 for daily driving.. The Hawk is gonna be a fun weekend, every now and again Drag strip car.

The converter is the last piece of the puzzle... thanks in advance guy's!

I have a Circle D 5C in mine (4000-4200) and love it. My vette isn't a race car, but it's not my DD either. Contact Chris from Circle D. He can tailor your converter to your needs. http://circledspecialties.com/askchris.aspx

Here's a video of some passes from june 15th of this year with the 5C

I cant wait until I run the car in November/december

Can't speak for a car with similar mods, since mine is just a full bolt-on car, but the SS4000 was far and away the best mod I've done. Made the car much more fun to drive on the street. It still drove the same on the highway once it locked up and helped me break into the 11's with just bolt-on's and a sticky tire.

I also have a 5C (4-4200) from Chris. He makes great stuff and his service/tech support is excellent.
