I agree with Jared on the ATI convertors, historically they have been the quickest, fastest and most efficient of all the brands that we have tried. As Charlie stated, service and delivery is the fastest around. Also, we have found that only ATI can truly duplicate an existing convertor for stall, efficiency and ET/MPH. My ATI convertor currently stalls 64-6600, depending on weather/track conditions. We don't run the best 60's out there, but they aren't too bad for a 3630 lb SS/DA (best of 1.249 in 2007, 9.33/141).




1.249 in a heavy car like that sounds pretty good to me!!

Just as a testament to how good the ATI Converters are I thought I'd share a little story. In November of '03, we took the SS/BA Belvedere to Las Vegas with a different brand converter in the car. It ran a 9.27 @ 140 in REALLY good air for Vegas. Cold, no wind, dry, you get the idea. The following March we took the car back to Vegas with no other changes made than the ATI converter. The weather was in the 90's all weekend long with a slight headwind. The car went 9.33 @ 141. A difference of only .06 when the other cars that had run both races had slowed .15 to .20. The following November, the car went 9.15 @ 142 in conditions that were very similar to the prior year. Again, no other changes were made but the converter. We had thought the old converter was doing a pretty good job until we stuck the ATI in there! Almost a solid .15 quicker than the old one.




Can you comment on what weight that was at? What size convertor?

The reason I am asking is my legacy 7.50 cert is expiring this year and do not want to go 25.2 with this car. Planning on slowing it down and enjoying it more.

Thanks Mike




Mike,

The legal minimum weight for the car is 3420 lbs. We usually run it pretty close to that. No more than about 30-40 lbs. over. The converter is 8". If you have any other questions don't be afraid to ask.

Jared




Hi Jared thanks for the info.. I have a ATI that came from a SS Cuda I guess ATI will have info on that converter the box has a part number on it. Do they stamp a number on there converters as well?

I have not been able to work on the car in the last month since this picture was taken, but I have been burning up the phone ordering the final pieces of a very large project. Bumpers and front grill go in next. Dyno

I see Don Brotherton must have bought the whole S&S racing operation. Some of the cars are on racing junk but none of the barracuda's.

Hey Stewart, I noticed S&S racing has one of your beloved Dodge COLTS for sale also. Dallas Motorsports Marketing has 3 S&S cars for sale but none of the Hemi stuff is listed.

Yes. Phil Mandella (PMR Racing) is building him a new Cuda.
