RacerJJ Posted May 19, 2007 Report Share Posted May 19, 2007 My birthday is coming up and i am going to treat myself to a torque converter, anyone know of a good brand or model i should go with I really dont wanna spend more than $600??? A lot of guys like the YANK converters for that price range. I had good luck with TCI but if you can pony up an extra $400, I'd go with a Precision Industries. The lock-up is the best you can buy and I love mine! Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foxySS Posted May 19, 2007 Report Share Posted May 19, 2007 Yank will suit your needs and is within your price range. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
srtSSsvt121 Posted May 23, 2007 Author Report Share Posted May 23, 2007 how much did it cost you to install? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foxySS Posted May 23, 2007 Report Share Posted May 23, 2007 I can't tell you the actual install price of the converter because my transmission needed to be rebuilt at the same time. I believe the whole bill came out to like $1800 for both though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brobradh77 Posted May 23, 2007 Report Share Posted May 23, 2007 Go with YANK and as for install I had my shift kit installed at the same time and it was $400 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BILLS04SS Posted May 23, 2007 Report Share Posted May 23, 2007 Go with YANK and as for install I had my shift kit installed at the same time and it was $400 Which flavor of Yank did you go with? The 2600?? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
srtSSsvt121 Posted June 12, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 12, 2007 I am going to go with the yank truck thruster 3000, and the guy said it would be about $345.00 to install. I need to know if I'll live without a retuning my pcmforless with the yank tt3000 installed? because it is a pain in the ass. I also want to know what the hell a billet servo does, and is it worth buying? thanks for your feedback. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Black2003SS Posted June 12, 2007 Report Share Posted June 12, 2007 Talk to Mr. P or zippy about servos and shift kits. If they are pulling the trans, the least you could do is pick up a corvette servo and have them put that in. Zippy's kit is in the $200 range and I think it includes everything needed like servos, springs, directions, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thomp62301 Posted June 12, 2007 Report Share Posted June 12, 2007 zippy's the man when it comes to shift kits, drop him a pm. you won't be dissapointed with his kit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fallen.One05 Posted June 13, 2007 Report Share Posted June 13, 2007 this is going to sound like a never n00bish question... but what exactly does a Torque converter do? Seeing as how i'm about to do some tranny work.. i figured i should look into beefing mine up.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bad Dad Posted June 13, 2007 Report Share Posted June 13, 2007 this is going to sound like a never n00bish question... but what exactly does a Torque converter do? Seeing as how i'm about to do some tranny work.. i figured i should look into beefing mine up.. Go to Yanks web site and read up on them... it's a very informative site. I also have purchased the Yank TT 2600, and it goes into the shop next week for the install & Vette servos. http://www.converter.cc/index.html Happy Modding...

srtSSsvt121 Posted June 14, 2007 Author Report Share Posted June 14, 2007 also when i talked to the installation company they said i would have to furnish it myself so they wouldnt get blamed for something going wrong. what the hell does that mean? and no i dont have an extra $200 for the zip kit, i want one but i cant, the pcmforless is going to suffice.

Black2003SS Posted June 14, 2007 Report Share Posted June 14, 2007 You can at least try to get a vette servo for $30 off of ebay and the transgo HD2 reprogramming kit...look into it... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
