Default Feedback: Performabuilt lvl 3 and billet converter

First I'll say I've been plagued with vibration/overheat issues over several years. I still suspect the locally "built" converter. To make a long story short, I ended up with a lvl 3 performabuilt and one of their billet converters, matched to my car, with a 4,000 stall.

In addition, Frank answered his phone today (Sunday) to answer an installation question. Awesome.

I took my car for a test spin, and for the first time in YEARS I am vibration free! I took it very easy, and only went to 45 mph, but it was so smooth- I was grinning ear to ear. The shifts were firm and converter locked up fine. I might even say this ride was more enjoyable than the day I drove home from the dealer.

I look forward to putting this setup to the test before the track closes for winter. For now, I am more than content to have a solid car, no hellish vibrations and confidence that I can drive anywhere in town without issue!

Thanks Frank!
