ditto acook.


peace of mind is worth lots of $.

 

I had a hoped up 81 vette, i learned i dont like to walk untill i find cell service, the best way is to have a balence of mods that work well together, if you have A this but only C quality that it causes problems.

 

well then WE need a FUNDING FOR TRANS FORUMS. B/c $2500 is so F****N much but I guess I have NO choice. How about this for $800??

maybe if I first got the VB and then the TC or MUST I get everything all at once?

 

Hmm, never heard of them, maybe someone else has. Its amazing how you can finance boob jobs but not trannys huh? Anyways doing just the t/c or v/b at once might put more stress on the other parts, im not really sure though? Im sure someone will chime in.

 

Its just super hard thinking of spending $2500 for somthing that IN MY eyes makes NO difference. Yes, I know I am wrong and ill feel a lil power increase and the trans will be so much better, but im used to 10 sec COBRAS where $2500 = a $hit LOAD OF POWER and only clutch was needed

 

It could be worse, list on my tranny is 7900 i think...

 

$7900=

MACH Z 1000

 

IF he keeps it on Level 1 or 2 and drives in a decent way, he should be OK, correct???

 

I'm on level 1 all the time and today for the first time on 1 it went to 0 for like 2 sec and went back to 1 and went back to 0 for another few seconds and went back to 1, wierd??? But im always on 1 for better MPGs

 

He could run at level 3 or 4 with little adverse problems,, as long as he dosent try to pull much or, do any hard 4 wheel drive launches. I ran my bully dog power pup on extreme for 30 or 40 thousand k, til I got my new tranny,,, but wow,, what a difference when I did get my new tranny,, wish I had done it sooner

why not just run the stock tranny till it breaks? I thought they rebuild the tranny anyway so whats the big deal? am i missing something here?

 

If your getting just a tq converter and valve body you might want the rest of the transmission in working order or you aint going nowhere. Hes not buying a whole new transmission, he just wants to put some goodies in his to keep it together.

 

Ouch....Catastrophic failure can really cost a lot. I am getting a TC,VB,BIS, double deep pan installed for 3k. My builder said that is all i need for the little towing and occasional road rage i'll throw at it.

I will be running the smarty on top of my current mods

 

not only that ,, but if you have to ever replace the tranny and it is destroyed you will lose your core

why dont I just wait and have it replaced by warranty. I already have 70k/7yr warranty and my dealer is mod friendly and actually installs chips, TT, exhaust, intaktes....etc. There the ones who even tell you to get a chip and all this other stuff and are totally cool with mods.
