TCI SSF 3500. Great street/strip converter. I can beat M6 anywhere from 25 to a 45 mph roll, thats if they aren't that modded. Anywhere bellow that and my tires will spin like crazy.

After cam, intake, and pulley I ran 12.2. Then restalled to 4k and ran 11.9. 60's with the cam and 4k were consistent 1.64's.
However the converter has failed on me for the second time, so I will be moving on to something else.

Last year I lose the 3-4 clutch pack on the tranny. While on the way to LS1 speed to have a built tranny installed and have the converter shipped to TCI to be restalled from 3500-4k it stopped locking up. Turns out something in the converter broke (not sure, probably lockup clutch...) and I was lucky to have it go out with such good timing. TCI fixed it while they had it.
A couple weeks ago the lockup went out again, just like last time. Difference this time was that I drove it for one day after it went out. The second day I took it to a tranny shop and while I was driving it with a tech in the passenger seat with a scanner plugged in the converter just completely took a ****. Started slipping at a light, and in a matter of seconds it may as well have been in neutral.
TCI has offered to fix it if I cover shipping, so I will ship it to them, have them fix it, and then sell it. I have a new Yank SS4000 on the way.

wow that sucks, did it give any kind of warning signs, or just crap out without warning
my fuddle surges at idle in gear, and when it was on the dyno, the guy said it was flashing to 4400
