We're offering 10% off all Yank torque converters including their new Super Stock line -

Three key components set the Super Stock line of converters apart from the competition:

The unique 21 blade stator was developed by General Motors and will see duty in the upcoming 2004 rear wheel drive Cadillacs with 5 speed automatics. By using a very aggressive 21 blade stator vs. the conventional 15-18 blade model, Yank is now able to offer a converter with the starting line thrust of a 4000+ rpm stall converter with the drivability of a 2800 rpm stall converter. The large windows between blades allows a good supply of oil to flow through, ensuring very high efficiency and low heat.

A large 258mm (10.0") clutch. This pure carbon-lined clutch is much larger than the 245mm clutches used by the competition. This larger converter clutch will lock-up faster and will lessen the amount of nagging slip codes so common with high stall torque converters. The Super Stock converters use the popular 245mm (9.5") pump and turbine configuration. This ensures lighter weight, more efficiency in higher stall applications, along with higher shift extension than larger 258mm converters (such as the Pro Yank series).

The revolutionary billet cover is Yank's lightest to date...even while utilizing the oversized 258mm clutch. Total weight for the converter is 28 lbs, 10oz. This is two lbs lighter than any other Yank converter.

Converter Comparison: SS3600/3800 vs. Yank's 2 most popular converters -

Stall Torque Ratio: The SS3600/3800 is higher than the ST3500 and YPT4000. For the SS3600 it is 2.50. For the SS 3800 it is 2.55. This will make the Super Stock converters feel tighter driving around town and will enhance drivability for cars running less gear (such as 2.73 and 3.23 gears). This will also hit the tires much harder at the starting line, a real plus for those running sticky tires.

Efficiency: The SS3600/3800 is within 1% of efficiency of the ST3500 and YPT4000 in the 5000+ rpm range and exceeds them both in the 2500-4500 range.

Shift extension: The SS3600 has 4700-4800 rpm shift extension. The SS3800 has 4900-5000 rpm shift extension. This compares to the ST3500 shift extension of 4800-4900 rpms and the YPT4000 of 5500-5600 rpms. Bottom line: for cars with less gear, smaller cams or power adders such as nitrous oxide, less shift extension can be better. For maximum ET and mph running naturally aspirated, choose a converter with more shift extension.

More info for the C5 Yank line-up can be found on our website. Orders can be placed online or by calling 1-877-4-TBYRNE.

This offer will be running through Sunday evening (2/29).
