Tired of getting them, sending them back and then they are OK the second time. Who can hit them the first time?
Not looking to start a "storm" just your experiences with the companies who got it RIGHT!

Thanks

I like Competition Transmissions converters. There in Tonawanda NY and really do a good job. Carl guarenteed me 4 tenths and 4 mph over my Art Carr 9in I had and he was bang on right. Thats an extreme improvement but he seemed to know. I ordered one for my crate motor combo and it works way better than the TCI I had prior to that. 60ft was faster and it hit the tires way harder to the tune of an extra 2 feet of clearence in between the front tires and the track. If anything it made the car more fun to drive. ATI has some quality stuff as well. Alot of people I race with use there stuff and it seems to hold up quite well. My 2 cents....

I'll second Bob G's recommendation for A-1, and I've had the same converter in my car for 13yrs...8"/3600 Stahl....

Call ATI 1-800-284-3433 and ask for Charlie Plotts.

Lightweight PTC here, I asked for a particular flash rpm, and they nailed it out of the box.
