What transmisson to go with?
Ok well its time to put a tranny in my truck. What tranny should i go with? I want to make sure that its gonna be able to handle 800 hp+! I was looking at ats transmissons and im not sure what stage can handle that much. I cant find any goerend or suncoast transmisson's anywhere on the internet. What tranny would you go with? Im kinda on a budget but i want to make sure i dont have to replace it later. Thanks

Yeah, I'm on a budget, too, but spent $5K for a nice tranny that will take 400HP. Nice tranny, not so nice amount....

Get one for either HTS, Goerend or DTT and you won't be disappointed. I'd be skeptical of anything else.

Any of the companies already mentioned from previous members would be a good choice! I'm a little iffy when it comes to ATS, just cause of their hit and miss trannies, just my opinion though.

My DTT was 7 k but a little more customized for my towin and plowin then most. Terry at Moonlight diesel put mine in and told me I can beat the crap out of it to 600 hp.
So far I am very pleased with it.

I've only got about 250 miles on my Goerend, but I like it so far. Just hope it will last $5,000 dollars worth. Nothin' like putting in half the value of your truck to make it go....

800HP, $6K, I think your budget may need a boost.

I'm workin on the same probem. I just had to rebuild my tranny. I spent 2,200 dollars and it won't even handl the edge pulse chip. Which I don't know how much more power it gives you. And the converter slips sometimes. But I don't know which. Aftermarket converter to go with? I need a lil help. Any help at all is appreciated.
