A timely thread, since I am looking for a new converter.

I have heard that TCIs have been unreliable.

I just ordered a Vigilante 3800 with a single-disk lockup.

My current converter, a Yank PT4000, has been slipping. I had a Vigilante 3000 a few years ago with no problems.

I just had a Fuddle 3400 2.1str put in last week, ran a 12.861 and was hot out and a DA of 4000 feet. I'm still getting used to it and need a shift kit or tuning, getting the pulse width modulation under 2,000 rpms when car lugs a little.

I have a Yank 3000 coupled to 3.73's, love the feel, however I should have gone at least with a 3200 to 3500 stall.

Whats this pulse width modulation thingy? Does it have to do with lockup?

Azhigher · 08-26-2005, 12:50 PM

I'm getting a fuddle 3400 2.1 I'll letcha know how it goes.
