I LOVED both Yank SS3600's I had. I love the PT4000 even better.

Another vote for the Yank SS 3600. The difference in how the car launched off the line was night and day. Once you get use to driving with the new converter, you will wonder how you ever got by without it.

My GF DDs a cammed/stalled(Yank ss3600) T/A. Very pleased with the results.
It drives almost like stock, but when you hit it, all hell breaks loose.

I agree! Isn't much different than stock..feels tight with the 3.73 gears.

im undecided now. i have a choice to make, driven the ss3600 and loved the **** out of it, now im wondering if when i get back stateside i should go with the ss4000. got some 3.90s in the rear with a stock cam. i just figured as far as matching a cam later, it would give me more options. any insight? definatly goin yank though.

Me personally am a fan of Vig, My first TA had the 3200 and very good daily driver and locked up very hard, 3.73's around 400hp still able to get 20 - 22mpg on the highway...I say very good for what it was

Just on the note Vig 3600 MD actually stalls 4300 (know from experience) careful not to get to high for your setup, your torque may blow right through your converter

I kind of wish my car had a bigger stall...but I'm too lazy to take it back out and send it for a re-stall...but next time I'd go with the SS4000.
