Maybe so - not knocking it but I'm pretty sure I kept more in my wallet rather than going with the vig with the same stall rating. Paid just less or right at $400 (USD with s/h) for mine (2.8-3.2 K stall - stalls on my application between 3 & 3.1K)....seems to work OK no problems to report so far - but I've only had it installed for 1.5 years of abuse so far....I mean use.


Where are all the B&M people?

The B&M converter only has a single disk lockup clutch. The Vigilante has a 3 disk clutch. The B&M can't take too many full throttle lockup engagements behind a strong motor.
