Default Yank Converter

Well, I swore I would not do ANYTHING to this truck other than the blower.....
Now look at it

I am looking at the Yank 2000 stall converter for the truck. My boss said if I dont like it he will buy it so I cant go wrong. Here we go again...

You'll like a Yank3000,it will flash to 3200 rpm with the 5.3 Radix and have fantastic street manners.You're going to love it.

Don't get the 2000, you'll save money by getting the TT3k first up. If not money, the time and aggervation of dropping the trans again.

Stock will flash at what ... 1600-1800, the Yank will flash to 2200 ??? Not worth it if you ask me.

Why would you even consider changing converters with no increase in stall speed?Are you towing 10,000lb.trailers or what?
