Fwd: Re: SUPPLIERS FOR CONVERTORS

[Marty Bricker <mbrickerusn@xxxxxxxxx>]

I wrote to Coan and received the fol reply:
'We offer an 11" Pro Street Converter, part number
COA-40215. This converter is a 22-2600 stall speed
converter. This converter performs really well on the
street. The cost on the converter is $299.95'
I was unable to find the Coan converter on Jegs or
Summitt, but the TCI converter is avail through
Summitt for $276.  
Steve obviously likes his Coan converter.  Anyone have
any other experiences with the TCI or Coan converters.
 Is the Coan avail anywhere else for less than their
website?  (the TCI converter is almost $100 more when
you buy it from TCI vice Summitt).
