I daily drove a P.I. 3600 on my truck for a little over a year, great product.......Not too loose, not to tight, very reliable.......Cant speak for Circle D as I have never owned one but also have heard nothing but good things.....Chris' customer service is top notch as far as I've heard.......

I have a 2600, multi disk Vigilante by P.I. and I love it. If you have never driven w/ a TC in your car then I must say it's kind of weird at first. I'm not sure what kind of MPG implications this TC carries but sure it fun to drive. My TC was serviced (restalled down from 3200) by P.I. and they are great company to deal with. I hear great things about Circle so you can't go wrong with either one of the vendors.

Roll the dice.. They both are good. While your in there add a Yank to the mix, roll them again. Do not think you cam go wrong with any of them

I would have to say Circle D. IMO the quality control is better and I have yet to have one take out one of my transmissions. Its been a while since I looked to compare but I believe the converter hub on the Circle D is a bit thicker. I feel this is a good thing and keeps the converter hub from breaking and taking out the pump in a 4l60e. I had this conversation with three different converter companies when this problem was going on and two of the three seemed to have made changes to their products. Chris was one of them. I could be wrong here and this is just my opinion. Vince
