Holy ****, Scott. I thought I had bad luck with my cars!!! Sorry to hear, man.

Default Do not do business with American Performance Converters

just as the title says, do not do any business with Larry Barnett or American Performance Converters out of Peru Indiana. I bought a NEW converter from them built specifically for my s-10, It broke on the first trip to the track, It made it threw 2 motor only passes, one small shot, and 1 pass at the hp level it was built for, It grenaded at off the brake on the 5th pass.

He will not stand behind his product. He will not warrantee it, or make this right. I wanted the money i paid for the converter put towards a new converter and he has refused. So if anyone is needing a converter, please learn from me and go elsewhere.

Ya, he is a ex-Coan transmission employee I guess. I DO NOT recommend his stuff either. Sorry for all your troubles, but your truck looked good on the bumper though!

Working 12 hour shifts, so no fireworks or cruising for me unfortunately. Hard to turn down the double time and holiday pay. Hopefully, Frost will have my latest tunes done and emailed to me today or tomorrow. Car goes to the body shop tomorrow morning. Should be done by Friday.

I've got an early morning tomorrow. But that won't stop me if the weather is nice and others will be out!

People have been out the last few weekends. I can vouch for that because I was one of them.
