Tranny Lasted A Hard 30K!!!!!!!

Well it started... I though I could feel it but never felt a slipping tranny before... Now with 14k in tow she's straining... I called and Talked to Nathan (MPI) today to ask what it was like and sure enough... SHe's slipping good now... Backed the smarty down to 5 and mp-8 is off for sure.. I am goona remove the smarty and put the zxt on.... I was headed to WIde Open's DYno with Mark and JD tomorrow but not now.. I will surely blow the tranny out the rear end!!!

Tranny shopping has begun!!!!

She had a good hard 30k... Still runs pretty good but you know when the slipping starts it's inevitable!!!

I'm sorry to hear about the transmission
Watchcha going with? I heard HTS and Goerand Bros. (parts I'm using) are at the top of the heap right now!

Well, I think that you got more out of your transmission than most of us thought! (speaking for myself!) At least it didn't leave you stranded (from what it sounds like)
What do you have planned for your truck eventually? Maxed out? Lot of flexability with the twins thing at least.

Yeah I have heard good things about those fellas too.. To be honest there's a bunch of good choices out there but I will keep everyone informed!!!

Yeah I was glad it just didn't dicinigrate... Knock on wood....

Plans??

90 hp DDP's
Floor It cp3
Supporting mods to keep it running healthy... It seems like the more power involved the more problems so I am pretty happy where I am at but I want to upgrade the cp3 and the injectors and I think I'll be done !!!

Hey give Pat Lisky a call, he opened up a new shop in Meridian and builds a mean tranny with a warrantee. PM me for his number. His 11 second 04.5 has tested a few billet parts!!
