Thumbs up Time For a Converter!

It's that time to look into a converter!
I've been looking around and it seems that Yank and Precision seem to be at the top of there game! So i will be looking into one of thoes unless someone can suggest another brand?
My mods are in my sig and i will be adding eather the MS4 or Polluter cam, i was thinking 4000 would be a nice stall speed. But whats your opinion on the stall speed and brands?

I do have the factory 4L60E and 10-bolt with 3.23s, i will use them until they break.

Vigilante Converter I had in my car before the tranny broke was awesome. I'd get that tranny built cause 4l60e's are weak and if its got alot of miles on it and u put that nice new converter in it and the tranny brakes ur gonna have medal all threw the converter. Just my 2 cents. But I like Vigilante(Precision Industries).

If you want more street friendly I would go with a Yank SS4000. If you want more track then I would go with a Yank PT4000+.

I would recommend our 5C or 4E. Both are rated about 4200-4400. The 5C will hit very hard. The 4E is softer and better from a roll.
