Trannyman has the best converters, but they're pricey. However, I don't lose any sleep at night wondering if mine will fail.

 

[The Broken Regal]

I have a 3000 and its uh.. high, but should be right for big power

idk, maybe like a 2750... which DD has for sale iirc, ironically

 

[Yaj Yak]

thats what i have heard... fucking 600 bucks tho. its nuts.

dd and heavykevy and i are gonna have a lil trade triangle going on! X

 

[10sec]

$600 over $350 (I think zzp sells for that much?) is enough piece of mind I need to know I never have to worry about a ballooned converter destroying my transmission.

 

[Yaj Yak]

what one does dub d have

 

[10sec]

As long as it's not a stock converter you "should" be fine, but a stock one will balloon so don't get a stock one. as in a stock gt one.

 

[Handsome Jesus]

whats wrong with stock GT converters? oops I has one.

I have a 2750 stall KJ. I dont know if it is worth keeping or not though...

Where his power level will be, it'll balloon. That's all thats wrong with it, otherwise I'll be tossing one into my red car :smile: best converter money can buy!

[Yaj Yak]

ah k. so good converter here i come.

 

[10sec]

Yeah, and secret mods, you'll have it apart anyways, don't be a dick.

 

[Yaj Yak]

i think i may need m@'s heads... maybe.

 

[10sec]

Stock heads broski, just do the secret mods. You know what i mean

 

[Yaj Yak]

nawz. the big bottles. 2 of them.

 

[10sec]

That junk needs 6 of them.

Stock heads though, for real, no need for ported heads this isn't supercharged talk. Be a high compression poster like myself.

 

[Yaj Yak]

you think?

get a l26 block from somewhere? put my l67 on the shelf?

 

[10sec]

No no no no, keep l67, you'll need it. If you blow that up then i would say to get an l26, but keep what you have. That motor will make plenty of power for a long time. Miles are just numbers.

 

[10sec]

I was just saying high compression poster because i think it's cool.

im confused here... what will balloon? a shitty converter or a good 2750 with his mods?

 

[10sec]

A stock one will balloon, a good converter will not.

 

[The Broken Regal]

oh I thought you were talking about the 2750 balloon and had me like wtf about my 3k

 

[10sec]

No you'll be fine, but it won't balloon if you never go to the track

 

[The Broken Regal]

No you'll be fine, but it won't balloon if you never go to the track
