This is the problem with polls. People do a search and find an old thread with a poll attatched. They decide to vote in the poll just for the heck of it. That in turns creates a TTT even though they never actually posted a reply.

Then people see the thread on page one and treat it as a current thread. We have a transmission poll on page one right now that was started 1.5 years ago

BTW

Yank for the win!

And this is coming from a TCI owner who has 1.69 60's and 0 problems after two years of massive track and street abuse. I am sure the thread starter has made a decision by now but maybe someone else who is in converter decision mode will read this

I have used Yank and Midwest. The Yank outperforms the Midwest easily and have had zero issues with Yank.

I have owned Yank 4400 stall, Vig 3200 stall and TCI SSF3000.

The only one I did not have lockup problems with was the vig.

Durability for a street driven car is key imo...Put it in with a good trans cooler and forget it.

If you are all motor Vig 3600 if you plan to spray a small shot 3200 stall. jmo but I've run all three and the Vig won for me...
