Ordering Converter Single or Triple plate? Was going to order my Vigilante 3600 Converter here soon, was wondering if it is worth it paying $165 extra to get the tripple plate converter vs the single plate. I plan on using some form of power adder maybe a year or so down the road but just wanted to hear your opinions. I get free Re-Stalls for 2 years! Thanks
If you want to lock it at WOT then get the triple
(or more). If you're going to let it unlock like the
stock tunes do then you aren't going to exercise
the capacity (though towing might). Some folks want
to lock it at the top of 3rd so they can finish in 3rd
at a higher trap, not shift to 4th. With the 3.23 gears
you're not likely to top out 3rd in the quarter mile,
without -mondo- power adder and big base HP as well.

I would go Multi Disc Right of the bat...Its not that more expensive and it gives you more compatibility
I have the triple disc 10.5 inch 2800 vig in my truck has 200miles on it now and just starting to play with it and wow is all I can say, this thing is the sh_t. really locks tight. Like it.
