If you are looking for a 4L60E transmission builder that can make one live in a drag racing application. Call Finish Line Transmission in Schaumberg IL (city might be spelled wrong) I cannot tell you how many passes are on mine. Its been in mine for years and has not had one problem what so ever. As far as ATI goes Ed gave me the serial number off of his converter from when he was bracket racing his car. (we had similar combos at the time) Called and ordered one. It makes my Yank and my Precision converters look bad. REALLY BAD! Try one you might like it.

However staying with Yank. It is a proven Converter for my car.
Do not think Jim has a competing converter or would have heard about it by now.
The Yank feels like to a stock converter on the street. Until you nail it.
If I need a new 4L60E, ATI is a solution.

The stock 4L60E had more than 300 runs and 140,000 miles.
The next one died after 20,000 miles.
Hurt that transmission road racing at Summit Point at FATT.

Shane Cobb rebuilt the next one and it runs great.
He is no longer building them and have found a couple 4L60E only specialists.

Soon will be looking for a good used aluminum trailer.
Problem is finding a place to store it.
