I just did a ss3600. I was on the edge about going with the ss4000. I talked with Dave and he said 3.73's really help with the 4000 so it does not feel so loose. I decided I wanted to keep the gears that I have until the 10 bolt breaks. But it seems like the 4000 responds like my 3600 so I guess I should have bumped it up. I do really like the 3600 and am 100% satisfied with how it woke up the car.

I was planning on doing 3.73's when I decided on the SS4000, but I really think I am going to hold off now. I really don't see the need as I am more than satisfied with the way it drives now. My friends have ridden with me and they too are amazed at how tight it is. I think I'll save that money for something else.

Do you have a bigger trans pan? I was wondering if I need to get one, or if its one of thoughs things, its nice to have but not necessary.

Yes as the fluid volume is now lower that factory fill, as the stock converter holds more fluid then the smaller converter body has a smaller volume and you must make up the loss of about 3 qt's of fluid to keep the system stable
you know have around 8 qts not 11

Congratulations on the new converter, btw ... hope it works great for you!
