Good story and sounds like it turned out well. It does sound like you've got some capable help in the area.

Thanks Guys,

The guys at Atlanta Performance & Fabrication are very capable, and familiar with a Maggie in a truck tune. See some of their work here. And look at this thing!

I'm all done there unless I find a free 3.3 pulley on the shop floor or something. I am very happy and am right where I want to be with my only vehicle.

The trans shop has me all dialed in. He finally got the 1-2 calmed down and ordered a special valve not included in the kit from Transgo to firm up my 2-3-4.
Now the 2-3-4 are much faster and just firm enough one can tell there is a kit in the tranny. His last words are always "Drive it and let me know what you want. We want to dial it in the way you want it."

He told me of a case where a bad or dirty MAF contributed to a burnt tranny in a Tahoe they got in.
When I told my Tuner what had been discovered he talked some tech stuff way over my head about load sensing indicating he was in agreement about the soiled MAF.

I updated my signature page adding an under-hood photo and correcting the install date. Also updating the Dyno chart to include the non-blown OE tune, the Maggie with supplied Superchips 3.5" pulley tune, and the current tune Atl-Perf 3.4" pulley tune.

Is that the place run by Reid Whisnant, former Pro Stock stand out, and his son, Mark?
