Default Who's got the best stall prices?

Just like the title says, who's got the best prices? Yank, Vig, TCI, or Fuddle? What sponsor is the best to deal with and has the best pricing/service? I am looking for a 3500 stall. Thanks.

Looks like Fuddle and TCI have the best prices. I have a TCI 4200 in my V6 and love it. I'm now shopping for a converter for my LS1. I have to see more track times with Fuddle as I really like their prices.

You get what you pay for with Yank... and then some.

yank enough said, you will pay though, if you are not looking for max performance than another converter will do...

I second you get what you pay for. If you cheap out then you end up getting a part that breaks which in turn breaks something else.

I haven't read any posts talking about either a Fuddle or Yank breaking so I take that out of the equation. I haven't purchased a converter yet, still in shopping mode much like SVT THIS. Based on everything I've read so far here and other forums I'm leaning towards the Fuddle. If you've got an all out track car I might think differently but for a daily driver, some track time and on a budget, Fuddle looks to be a good choice.

If you guys want to go with a "you get what you pay for" converter then give Neal Chance converters a shot at this too. But again like some other options, I don't think they're probably the best choice for someone who asked about best deals/prices.

I had no issues with Yank's Customer Support. I have purchased 2 converters from them and they are built like tanks.

I am going to go with a Fuddle 3600 stall with a 2.2 str. I just can't justify missing a great deal like that! Not to mention the great service I've already had from them and I haven't even bought one from them yet!

fuddle..like said above...for a guy on a buget and rarely goes to the track and axually drives it everyday then get a fuddle you wont tell that much of a difference on the street..but if its a "track only" car then spend the money once(yank)! IMO
