Looking for feed back on Fuddle Racing Converters do people have good luck with them

I don't know, and don't expect to experience 1000HP. I sure
don't expect you'll put it through a 4L60E more than once or
twice.
On my car their HP/Street does hold (and lock down during)
WOT. But I am sure it's well short of 400HP.
You ought to ask them if they think they're capable at that
power / torque level. You're not going to find many who have
tried their product in that harsh a setup, or even many setups
that harsh.
I'm sure they'll quote you, or tell you no, if you ask them.

I'm not a fan of Fuddle at all. I and many others have had problems with them.
I can stand behind Vigilante in both 4L60E and 4L80E trans that I have used their converters in.
I would also say consider Edge since a close friend of mine has used their product and cutting 1.4/1.5's in an Impala with one of their converters.
If you look in the GMHTP magazine with the Nitrous vs S/C article, youll notice everyone who was running 9's and 10's with an auto ran a Vigilante.

Fuddle did have some issues a while back but from watching various forums which is what I do all day. THey seem to have gotten it back together I would ask them about it and ask what kinda warranty they offer. Some people say if you have a good product you dont need a long warranty, But I know personally its gives me that warm fuzzy feeling inside to know its there. Particularly if I had a monster like your speaking of lol

I'm running a Fuddle motor/nitrous 8" in Pinkenstein. It's a little tight for motor and great on spray... went 11.38@119/10.1@133 in July, just went 11.02@121 on motor so on spray and a 150 shot I'd say it will go 9.7 or so.

i have a fuddle also, and also at only slightly above stock power. seems like most people are scared of them since they disappeared. i got mine before that. from what i remember they had a few huge sales ($350 converters) and couldnt keep up with demand as well as a few crap converters. but it seems like they've straightened things out since they came back. who knows really, in my opinion i dont even think they know if their converters will hold that much.
I've been running a Fuddle for two years with no issues. I cut mid 1.60 60' times consistantly. Lots of track passes (100 or so) and daily driven. Getting ready to do a restall or maybe even a upgrade. Sticking with them till I have a reason not to.
