Torque converters
Based on best price , reliability and quality which would you buy ?
I want a Yank SS3600/2.5 str. but its $875.00 :(
Vinnci is only $575.00 , but are they worth buying ?

Curious, your SIG reads 4400 Vigilante & by the PIC of the front end lift your C5 looks damn fast. Which TC is in your C5? TIA.

Re: Torque converters (zoomz)
Someone please fill me in on shift extension.
My car shifts at 6k , is that SS 3600 going to work well at 6k shifting ?

Re: Torque converters (00TORCHCOUPE)
I went with the SS3600 and managed to get a defective one. Yank was very unhelpful, refusing to send a replacement before they received the original one. Shop I had install it had to order another, then ship the other back. Yank also claimed to have shipped it when they in fact had not.
Service sucks :smash:
