When you deal with us you are dealing with the owners not sales people
all Yank products contain all new parts, and we do not use salvage yard cores
in our converters.
Do not be fooled by thinking that clutch with more square inches of lining is better, as it will requier much higher converter pressure to make it hold, that is the same in a dry clutch, as many race units have small pucks of lining and not a full large covered surface.
When exactly is the price of the 3200 stall going to be on sale? 795 is just a little bit too much for me to pay when fuddle has em for 550

Sorry but when John at Fuddle told me he would still warranty his coverter NO questions asked with me LOCKING the converter at whatever point I wanted with my hp levels and even on a 300shot that sold me. You have no idea how much pressure that puts on the clutch with my heavy *** 5600# truck and 800hp being pushed through it. He also will let me tow however much I wanted with it and if I blew it up a new one would be in the mail. Free restalls to whatever you want you just pay shipping. If oyu go to an 80e within the year he only makes you pay the diff between the two converters which I am now taking advantage of. If I would have bought a Yank I would have to sell my 60e converter lose my *** on that then throw up the big bucks for the 80e converter so at a minimum I would be out 400 bucks to get an 80e converter from them but since i bought a Fuddle I only have to pay 60 bucks and I have a brand new custom built to my specs for stall speed and flash speed for my 80e conversion. None of which Yank would do. I have heard too many warranty complaints about Yank and my local speed shop will not even sell them due to all the **** they had to deal with. The price is much better now for their stall but customer service is much more important to me and Fuddles policy on their converters no questions asked you blow it oyu get a new one under the warranty is hard to beat. Fuddle does not use "junkyard" cores as Yank may lead you to believe. The best way to get ahold of Fuddle is to call 801-368-9655 I get John(the owner) on this line 90% of the time and if not then he calls me back promptly. He even diagnosed my dads F-350s trans problem and called a few friends about it knowing he may not even get the business from it. THAT my friends is customer service to me and why I will continue to buy from Fuddle Racing.

Yank has been around longer and seems to have a good product. But, I wasn't willing to drop $1K on a converter. Got my Fuddle for $500 shipped. Works great. I will buy my next from him no doubt. Custoemer service was an A+++ with Fuddle as well.
