sweeeeet! When do you get it installed? That's the same converter I'm likely going to end up with so I am VERY interested to see how you like it and what performance it gives.

Thanks for all the kind comments, very nice to read. Customer service is very important to me. The old golden rule idea, I am to please. It also helps that we manufacture one of the strongest converters in the market. If you are in the Houston area, stop on by for a tour.

I just signed up to be a sponsor on PT, so I hope to answer more questions for you guys on here.

Chris

I doubt that just a trans/converter swap will get you a whole second. Yeah, you went to a bigger converter, but the parisitic loss from that trans/converter will negate any (or most) gains from the higher stall.. You may pick up a small amount, but don't set yourself up for dissapointment by expecting a full second... Just being honest with you.

I disagree. I don't think he'll get a full second...but it will definitely gain good over the 60e w/stock converter
