I got my FTI triple disc 3200. They answered a ton of my questions and shipped it in about a week. Looks real nice in the damn box.......wish I could get the damn thing installed.....LOL

I have a FTI 4,000 hard hit. I absolutely love it. Will buy from them again when it's time to upgrade.

Only have experience with Circle D for one converter and they were really good, asked what I drove and what I was looking to get out of my truck in order to determine the type and stall. After about 30,000 miles everything still runs well. They also gave me a tour of their facility and a free shirt. Can't speak to FTI and Yank, but I can't really recall anybody complaining about the big 3. FTI is the most active on this forum lately.

I could have gone with FTI again, but PTC was highly suggested by the guys that built my trans(PRT). I'll give it a try!

I've been extremely happy with Yank products and service. My *only* complaint about Yank is that they stopped making my favorite street converter series (SuperYank).

The converter is a pro grade triple disc if it matters.
Youre forgetting probably the best company out there. Precision. Vigilante converters hit hard and run strong and have good quality clutches.

I've never seen anyone other than Circle D's packaging and it was certainly impressive. I felt like it could fall off the truck and still be fine. They're so proud of their packaging they made a Youtube video just about it.

Agreed. I mentioned precision in one of my earlier posts in this thread... seems like they're frequently overlooked but they make a great product. I've been very happy with the vigilante in my setup now. Went FTI for new converter simply because I was getting trans, flexplate, and cooler from them also. Wanted a full Package deal.

I have had several Yank converters over the last 15 years, all were amazing. I now have a Circle D in my car and it is a beast. 1.29 60 ft' times. Circle D use to offer 1 FREE restall, not sure if they still do or not.
