    Yank 2800 Stealth TC

    Can a Yank 2800 Stealth torque converter withstand being commanded to
    lock up at 90mph in 3rd gear at WOT ?

    This is really a question for Yank. Have not seen many
    (any in fact) people mention running one of these, let
    alone dirty details.

    No, it is not capable of that kind of abuse, especially on a magnachargered Y-body.

    I would not advise locking up a stock style clutch more than 10 times throughout the lifetime of the clutch lining material's life. Which is a very long time is properly maintained. Multiple disc or oversize disc units can fair much better.

    I emailed Yank and they said that the Stealth 2800 will not withstand being
    commanded to lock up at WOT in 3rd gear at 90mph. But they do offer other
    model TCs that are designed to support this function.

    Did they happen to identify what models supported this abuse?

    I think the Yank guy said that the Yank Pro series will handle this abuse

    The Super Stocker, Pro Thruster, Pro Yank ... pretty much all of the ones with a billet cover can support this abuse. From what I know.
