If a few long burn-outs can overtemp the tranny at 4000 RPM, can extended cruising at 3000 over temp the tranny as well?

What about extended cruising at stock with the pedal to the metal?

I thought the tranny temp wasn't an issue if your weren't towing...

I guess i didnt explain well. My race truck is an 800HP Lingenfelter LS1 Silverado. Extended cab at that.LOL I use the 4k stall to jump off the line and be in the window to spray a 225 shot off the line.

Bushy would it be too much trouble to post a pic of one of the blown seals caused by high line pressure. i have raced these trans for more years than i care to remember. i recently blew the piston out of the front drum and reused the seals when i repaired it. i honestly have never seen one blow from high pressure. i built my first one in 1964. i have built a few in my lifetime. i quit looking at pressure gauge years ago, scared me.
