Default Just ordered a TCS Phoenix 4000 Converter

I took advantage of the sale price and free shipping.
It's 4000 stall, 2.5 STR with 5200 shift extension and 98% efficiency. I currently run a Yank Y3200 which is a great converter with no problems, but it's time to move up.
Hopefully I will seem some decent gains with this monster; especially with the new motor I have planned for next year.

I planned on going with a 3800, but went with the 4000 to get higher shift extensions. As soon as I receive it will be installed and run at the track.

You should see a nice gain over your yank with the TCS 4000. If it does not 60ft. as hard as you like you can step it up to a 2.7str

I'm sure you'll be happy. TCS makes a great converter. I like that they will customize it to your exact specification. Gotta love it!
