Transmission Converter Options

Dan Fahey · 05-07-2018, 11:45 AM

I am running into a new issue.

Currently running a 4L60E trans and Yank PT4400 Locking Converter
Needs more converter but nobody makes a higher stall speed Converter.

Which makes plans to move up to Stock interesting.
I like the programmability of the 4L60E.

So what options are out there?
Also will I need have drive shaft issues?

Dan,
You have really answered your own question ; purchase a good turbo 200 and you will have any of a number of convertor shops to choose from .The reality of stock eliminator is if you don't do it right the first time you will be sorry .

Correct!

What do you need a lock converter for? You won't even use 4th anyway.

For one...You can gear it like a Manual.

Most race manuals use a direct 4th. You can under drive an old Nash or maybe even G-Force, but not overdrive it.
