Default FS: Yank Truck Thruster 3000, warranty friendly

This converter is special. It's a modified Trailblazer converter that stalls 3000 behind my 5.3L Tahoe. Dropped my ET 6 tenths! It is unpainted and looks just like a factory Truck/SUV converter (except it's slightly smaller). Interestingly, I had my tranny replaced under warranty this year (non converter related) and the converter was never questioned, haha.

Warranty on my Tahoe is about to expire and I'm now running a little hotter Yank converter. This Yank 3000 converter I'm selling has the big Trailblazer clutch (for towing a boat or trailer) and it has about 12k miles on it. 100% problem free. I was going to put it in my Suburban, but my wife said she rather use the money to tile our bathroom, LOL! I will take $400 plus shipping for it (firm). If you're in Houston, come and get it. If not, I can ship it COD.

My e-mail address is: pguerra@rhinomarketing.cc

Thanks, Patrick

With a 5800 rpm shift, the rpm extends to 3600...about 200-300 over stock. The real big difference is in the launch. It's a big difference over stock.

This is an unpainted Truck Thruster 3000. Since it's built off the stock Trailblazer converter, it has up to 8000 lb towing capacity. STR is around 2.1 and my 5800 rpm shifts drop to about 3600 rpms. Looks just like a factory GM Truck converter because it is...it's just 90% of the size, haha.
