I am Happy for you that it is at or very close to what you wanted. I didn't get as lucky as you did but it worked good for me so hopefully it will for you also.
I will let you off of the steak dinner bet with me.

Glad to hear you are happy with this converter. I see where some have good luck with a converter company and some dont as you hear that alot. I have used 3 Dynamic converters and all worked great in our cars. But I guess no one is perfect. I have not used PTC but most seem to like them so I wish you good luck and I am glad the PTC converter works good for you. Ron

Went to test tonight - PTC NAILED it. Converter works perfect . Car pulled like a mule all the way down track . I had some hooking probs , like usual,, but Ive never noticed the car pinning me in the seat at the end of the track like this .

I had all kinds of problems with the car tonight--glad I went to "test-n-tune" ! So i need to sort all that out and get some good air to test again

I think i found a rear shock setting the car likes (stiffer) --it picked up about a tenth from the previous 2 runs up

Because the converter worked so good , and my temporary glee....i feel i should be released from my "free steaks for everyone " wager .

I agree with CAB = my tach is 100 rpm off....making it 4700 !!


Yes?




(im kinda broke at the moment )

How about this for a dynamic story?

Many years ago when I switched from racing Chevy to mopar I was building an engine. I knew I was pressed for time to make a race date. I would need a good mopar converter to go behind my new mill. Heard from a few guys that dynamic was ok. Called up, and told the over anxious sales guy I wanted a converter and needed to know how long to get one. He said 2 weeks to make, and whatever shipping time. I asked if i could pay now for my place in line, and when I dyno the motor give you the info. To which he replied, "absolutely, we do that all the time". Perfect,,, I thought.

One week later a converter shows up on my door from guess who. Motor has yet to be dynoed, car weight undetermined, no provision for mid plate, essentially not one piece of information from me necessary to build a converter.

When I confronted them about it, all they would say is, "just try it man, we know what we're doing". No anti balloon plate on this enormous converter either. Had to tell them to take it back, or I'd have my card company deal with it.



PTC is straight shooting, accurate, and fast. What more could you ask for?

Kenny the owner is also a MOPAR guy. I have always been happy with my PTC convertors also.
