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!!!

 

That stinks man. Who's going to build your new one?

 

cbrahs and Nathan have both given me good leads. Just need to do my homework now... It will be done right for sure and who knows I might get a lot more out of her that I think if I baby her and take care of her...Yeah that'lll happen!!!

 

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 !!!

 

Holy somkers eh lasted a while with ur supporting mods.
When you get ur new tranny are you gunna stick local or can us Nadp guys get you into a Heavy Hauler hehe.

I am re-searching them too.. Morkable (kevin) has helped me on that part!!!

 

Don't feel sorry for him, it's the day he has been waiting for

 

I heard that thing from here and I am 850 miles away from him!!

Glad it lasted this long buddy. so for now you can send me your smarty!!

 

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!!

 

Very true... Most of us thought it would be a lot sooner!!!


Call me It's in the mail. if you want!! Just tell me which program you want!

 

trade ya the edge so you can monitor slip!!

if you send it you might not get it back!! LOL!!

 

No, get the camera out, crank things up, and dyno anyway. we have been waiting for total meltdown. you have been rubbing the twins in our noses long enough. time to kill it. get it done shane.

btw, cross your fingers for me, sledpulling in superstock(6500-8000#) tomorrow with my little ofe, hope it holds

 

LOL... Might have to do that!! Get video man!!!
