all the info about them is listed on the web site www.converter.cc
but:
the SS3400 is a new stall speed to the SS line (3200,3600,3800&4000)
Pro Eliminator 4200 is a replacement for the PT4200 with improved performance in driveabilty and top end pull!
and look at the new low pricing

The PE4200 sounds like a great converter with a great price. I really like the standard 6-lug design and the HD lockup clutch.
What kind of improvements do you think I would see going from a PT4000 to the PE4200?

Thanks

John

This new PE4200 converter has been designed to extract the most and smoothest oil flow thru the converters internal parts allowing it to have a high S.T.R. that has a long lasting effect this will give that extra torque and still retain high efficiency at the speed ratio coupling point.
all that means is pull harder to shift point and put more HP to the ground after the shift.
An ET reduction of .12 to .15 and the MPH plus of .8 to 1.2 mph over the PT4000 in the same vehicle

Default PE4200 for daily driving?

i have the ss4000
i wanted to get a six-bolt like the ss4000E for nitrous later
but the PE4200 has this?

i didnt want a PT4200 because i heard its too loose for a daily driver
(only car!)

but the PE4200 has 2.6STR like the ss4000
and i think the ss4000 is okay for street

will the PE4200 feel much looser with 200+ stall and same STR?

will there be a noticeable difference in performance from ss4000 to PE4200?

SS4000 and PE4200 have different ways of getting the power to the transmission.
the PE 4200 and SS4000 will feel very much alike with a 3.23 and 3.42 gear
when used with a 3.73 or 4.10 the SS4000 will have start to slip less,at the middle RPM range and have a better throttle tip in feel(when unlocked)
and the PE will have a longer torque range this will allow for the great shift extension like the PT series.
The SS4000 converters will not pull from a WOT downshift as well as the PE or PT converter with A NA engine
But if NOS is in the plans the SS4000 will be the choice for over a 125 shot.
the 6 lug cover and clutch allow for all holes to be used with aftermarket flexplates and this clutch will handle lock up very well at the track and still perform on the street some thing that is hard to balance in a converter with a high stall.

Yank any plans on upgrading your PT series converter? I have your PT 4200 that was built less than 6 months ago and I'm already looking for something harder

from what i read,
the ss4000 will feel tighter sooner,
and the PE4200 will have better SE
and stronger WOT downshift

i WOT downshift all over town,
so that is important to me.

after a WOT shift,
rpm drop on the stock tach from 6000 down to 4700 with the ss4000

can you tell me where my rpm would drop to after a WOT shift with a PE4200?

and i read "An ET reduction of .12 to .15 and the MPH plus of .8 to 1.2 mph over the PT4000 in the same vehicle"

the PT4000 performs better than the SS4000?

i can expect more improvment then that?

Yes the PT is faster than an SS converter of the same stall in an NA car
and the PE4200 is up on the PT4000
but every application is different, so I am guessing about .20 or more in your car.
I just can't give you exact # as I have seen the same converter Knock off from .500 to 1.10 in the same setups, (drivers,cam and traction, ect) all have an impact.
The PE4200 converter has many hours of design and testing involved to give the performance converter buyer a ''best in class'' product

Give us a call, we would like to get more info on your setup

Yanks right about the PT being faster. I have owned more stalls than 80% of the members on this board. Ive been with PI, Midwest x2 (Owned a 3600 and then a 3800 ) , TCS (4000) (Yea that does say TCS), TCI (4200), Yank x 2 (SS3800) and now my current PT 4200 and I can say hands down out performs the other stalls. Ive been through about 4 cam swaps, 2 head jobs and every gear swap excluding 4.10's and with just by putting in my PT 4200 I picked up .2 over my last TCI I had. The TCI was cutting me 1.7's some mid 1.6's the PT 4200 cuts me constant 1.5's. (Same tires)
I'm not going into details of my setup cause thats my secret but yank knows their stuff.

I saw a post saying you guys sell a tranny shield for 4L60Es. Is that true? I can't find them on your website, and I'll need one to run NHRA Pro Street next year.

A .12 -.15 improvement over a PT4000 is very impressive! I cannot wait to see some track results.

the stock late model flexplate only has 3 places for bolt up but an early one 98-99 has 6 spots 3 predrilled and 3 blank areas that you can drill out for use of all 6 bolts

Super Stock 3400? I do not see it on the web site? I see the 32, 36, & 4000; but I don't see the 3400. What is the STR on the SS34000? I am looking for something in the lower 1.7-2.2 range.
