Another vote for a Vig 3600... 1.51 60' on close to stock suspension & drag radials.

They both have shops on the same block and work R&D then builds for a finished product together.

You blew up your engine and wonder if the converter is still going to hold up like new? Who installed the stall and what was the combo to blow it up like that?

Just pointing out you may want to rethink who is doing your shop work and build combo instead of singling out specific parts as a single point of failure.

What Gearhed said, we are the same company as Howard's. In the same shop, same address. I will explain this again, though, I am not sure why it is so hard to understand. Howard is my partner. We run 2 things: Howard's and Fuddle. Howard's does stock rebuilds; Fuddle does performance. We have used the other boxes before cause we ended up with a gigantic shipment of them once, more than ordered. So why spend more money for other boxes when it is just a box.

But as for volcanic, we have talked to your shop guy several times about what is going on, even if we haven't spoken to you, and agreed to send out a new converter without getting the old one back, which is really going out of our way. We relied on good faith that we would get the other back from you after.

Also, the problem with your converter has nothing to do with the build or converter. According to you the converter was running great before the engine had problems. Then your engine blew out, and suddenly the converter had a vibration. Then when you pulled the converter out, you found there was only bolt holding it in place. I told you it would be faster to send your other back, rather than build a whole new converter, but you wouldn't have that, despite the problem with the converter not being our fault. At this point, I am ready to put a stop on your shipment because I am not sure I trust you to send the old one back.

And as for 2002_Z28_Six_Speed, seriously, are you stalking me? Wow, you know that I worked at Olive Garden in college? Believe me, I am not that exciting, kind of pathetic that you chose me to stalk me. I have never dealt with you, but you seem to like following me. That's sad. And, um, what the crap does getting bit by a poisonous spider years ago have to with this? I know you miss working for your overpriced company, but let's face it, we know we build a better product for a better price.
