Default Yank Converters

Chris@AP-Engineering is offering Yank torque converters on special this week. Is he a sponsor here? Because I want to only buy from our sponsors. I'm going with a SS3600. Is that a good stall for my street setup? Some are saying it is tight around town with 3.73 gears. My car will only see about 5% of it's time at the strip and the STR of the SS3600 is 2.55, I think. Please let me know if you think there is a better stall level for me in the SS3600 to maintain driveability.

yes, he's a sponsor. that 2.55 STR will be a hard hit on those tires with your setup.

Actually the SS3800 has the 2.55 STR, the SS3600 has a 2.5, not much of a difference though. I really like my SS3800 with the 3.23s. My car only has simple bolt ons for now and I've been getting pretty good runs out of it. I also daily drive this car and the drivability with this converter is great.
