Default Edge Racing Torque Converters

Anyone have any experience with Edge Racing's torque converters? http://www.edgeracingconverters.com/

Gonna be adding a torque converter to my '94 and these look to be a decent option. MD

I use the Vigilanti Convertor , they are expensive , but the results are great.

I have a mild edge in my vette. It does a nice job. Lock up works great. Runs 12.90's on a basically stock 355 with a lpe 74211 cam. Feels a little tighter than I was expecting but I'm not making the torque I was planning on. 12" converter doesn't add a whole lot of heat. Nice piece and Andre was awesome to deal with

I went cheap and put a Boss Pig in my car. It failed after 150 miles.

I replaced it with an Edge and have had no problems since (10,000 miles). This was one of the torque converters recommended by Dana Wilkes of ProBuilt Automatics. He also likes Vigilante.

Not with the brand that you are asking about but 50,000 miles ago when I had a built 4l60e installed in my 95 I had a Yank 3200 installed at the same time ..... no issues at all .... other than the need for a trans cooler over the past 50K.

I do not track my car.

But the Yank makes the car a blast to drive briskly.
