Default Trailblazer converter upgrade from YANK

Yank is offering for the first time, a trailblazer converter upgrade it will turn your 2500 converter into a 3100 beast!!
We will increase the stall to 3100 RPM and install our KEVLAR clutch (for better holding and life) this lining made by CLUTCHTEX for YANK has 10% more area and higher friction than the stock lining.
(The stock carbon weave was GM designed to slip all the time)
with our new lining the clutch feel and holding is greatly improved!
this upgrade includes :
1, increase the stall in converter to 3100 RPM
2, change the clutch
3, install Kevlar lining
4, rebuild -- install new parts as needed
5, balance & pressure test
6, Epoxy paint
all this for just $250.00
plus shipping
the turn around time is very short!!
call us to set up your appointment today
Thank's for looking

converter must be in good working condition for special pricing

We do offer a 2400 stall upgrade on that converter.
the price will be the same $250.00
as all the features will be included that are stated above
the performance will be very close to the stock TB unit

with the TB and the KEVLAR clutch you can tow but you will have a higher stall when you come out of lock-up under a load but it will not hurt the converter
I tow 8500 lbs with a 2800 stall and have 56,000 miles on it at this time with 3.73 rear and it pull's great
but to play it safe I would rate it to 20% less than stock towing for your truck only because of the higher stall
but it will pullaway from a stop faster than stock with a trailer also

So it is $250 plus I pay shipping to you. Do you pay return shipping? I am very interested, since I have a stocker from a 5.3 4l60e sitting in the garage. I assume it will fit my 4l65e and will be stronger than a stock TB stall?
