Default Anyone tried RevMax Level 3 torque converter

I was wondering if anyone has tried a RevMax Level 3 torque converter?
It is a 9.5" lockup converter with your choice of stall, I was thinking of going with somewhere between a 2600-2800 stall lock up converter with their optional heavyduty lock-up clutch feature. They priced it at $316.00.
Anyone know or heard anything about them?
How do you think this converter would work in my 87 Vette?
I have a TPIS ZZ9 cam, TPIS BigMouth intake, AS&M semi-siamised runners, Comp Cams ProMagnum 1.5 roller rockers, underdrive pulleys, and true dual 2.5" exhaust, and the factory 2.73 gear.

Has no one tried one of these? How would driveability be with a 9 1/2" converter with 2600-2800 stall with my 2.73 gears?

I have one of there converters no complain so far. I have a 3000 stall and I love it. Add some of there upgrades like the anti balloon nitrous upgrade etc. Call them and go by there suggested stall speed.

Twin540, Thanks for the reply, That makes me feel a lot better about them.
How is driveability? I was worried that it might be soft or sluggish feeling during take and normal driving with the 2.73 gears.
Thanks again

I would add a transcooler and a derale pan . Anything helps. As far as you're gear ratio i can't help you there. Only way to find out is to try it. driveability is good

B&M Supercooler and Derale pan is the way to go with a higher stall !
i have a 3200 stall with 3.07 gears and feels like a race car !
I love the sound, its like a screamer now
