well Pat @ level 10 took apart my trans today and said it was toast.. he said he doesn't like alto clutches and his are way better. But he claimed the main problem was the torque converter he said it just blew up internally. I told him that must've been the loud noise that shook my whole truck, lol felt like a grenade went off underneath it. Either way he is changing out the frictions, seals, new high performance upgraded pump assembly, new splines? (he said mine had deep gouging), and a brand new converter with his stall speed as well as some other goodies he wouldn't elaborate on. I'm leaving the stall speed up to him, I sent him my dyno graphs and he seems to think a lower stall will actually benefit the truck more for the track and street to help load the motor faster to get it into boost.
here's the real kicker.. lol he just started on it today and told me he would be finished with it in a few hours and try to get it shipped off for me tonight. Man how's that for service.. I'm so excited and ready to see what this thing can do fully beefed up..

yea it has a 5 speed trans.. i didnt like the titan either really but when i got mine back in 04' the price tag was 20-22k cheaper than the chevy extended cab SS with leather.. think they wanted like 42k for it and the titan was only 22k. So I went with what I could afford at the time,lol after about a year it really grew on me and it was kinda cool having something at the track other people didnt race..
but the $16,000 in transmissions hurts pretty bad!
