trans question???

So I realize autos have there downside. My 518 has held up so far. It can be to to weak for the CTD. How do they compare to the 2nd gen autos, say a 94 model(47RH???) same probs or. Is this the first year for Dodge to use the 47RH?
Thanks.

'94 is the first year for an RH in a CTD. It's a beefed up version of a 518 and an excellent long lived tranny when used with a stock engine. Problem is when people jack up their hp it exceeds the design parameters of the tranny and causes failure.
