i have been waiting on buying the shift kit because i know i need to get my line pressure back to stock before i stick it in there or stuff might start to break. it seems like my trans is lasting too long...if possible. every day i get more and more worried that its going to die and i am frequently not around my home. i have only had the mods in my sig for the longer of about 12000 miles. it towed our travel trailer about 5 times a year, 33footer, until dad gave me the truck when i got myh license so he could get a new one. maybe i should just start saviing and planning on the explosion

 

My stock unit would have probly been fine....but my builder said he was thinking i had a defective part from the factory.Manily because the input shafts almost never break and i broke it with under 300hp to the wheels...that just usally doesn't happen.
My only point to this is that i ahd the shift kit with one shim in and my line pressure upped for over 20k miles and no problems...i didn't blow it until i put a TB stall in it...I guess that was the last thing the bad part could handle.

 

so when should i plan on having to have the trans replaced considering all the mods, uppe line pressure? i will also be installing a new cam, much more aggressive than my LS6. and the shift kit once i get line pressures reduced because i have read the wreck havoc on the 60e's

 

Really depends on your power your making and how often/hard you drive it.
I had almost 300 to the wheels when mine went but it was from bad a oem part.
When we took the trans apart my gears and such were in perfect shape.No burning nothing so if your not terrible on it...it should last a decent bit.If not i did PM you with my tranny guys number...

 

nah you did ill use it if i ever need it...im not too bad on it too much i figure im pretty close to 300 +/- some maybe i dunno. i was between 260 and 280 i think before cam wires and all trans mods. i dunno where ill be after the new cam, efans, LT's, and underdrive. probably knockin on the door of the closest transmission place

 

After all that...yea it won't last to long i'm sure.Unless you only use the power that you add for races only heh...Then it might last a while.

 

yea or just last through the 1/8th mile trap and coast me down to the 1320 on gthe first night out...

 

Ethier way heh.
