Tranny stuff

With the massive power people are putting out now and the load we are putting on our drive lines I thought I would pose the question, has anyone seen any tranny upgrades yet?? Besides the new converters??

Also has anyone tried the GSM TCM upgrade kit?

Anyone know if there is a tranny fluid cooler on the market yet?

 

Havent seen much other than the converters...but you can make yourself a tranny cooler pretty easily..
Here is what Matt Robertson did over on LXF

SRT Engineers said the tranny should be good to between 600 and 700 hp.

 

I just bought and installed a B&M Supercooler when I had the APS 2800 TC installed.
It was pretty cool when we hooked it up to the power steering lines first...

 

Bump for the GSM TCM question. I am thinking about it. Those who have it have any comments?

 

Renntech can beef us the stock tranny but its not cheap and has anyone found a PML pan that will fit our rides, add that plus some Amsoil and it runs alot cooler.

I hope that means RWHP lol cuz a few of us are already pushing 800bhp


Hey King do you have a link for that tranny cooler you bought?

 

errr, ummm, I don't remember but I'm sort of thinking they were talking fly wheel...:cry2:

 

Hehe yea but I have heard that the tranny is good to over 800 fly wheel. which is 650rwhp or so. So I dunno either way I am sure we are going to be seeing the limits very soon.

 

It's starting to come back to me now... That was about the time people were first starting to break half shafts and somebody (Erik?) was guessing that bracket holding the U-joint? was going to be the next thing to rip loose cause it wasn't bolted to anything really substantial... You got driveshaft loops right?

 

Here's where I bought it but you can find it pretty much anywhere.

search for "supercooler."

 

I contacted RennTech and the price was horrendous.

Besides that, they wouldn't tell me what they do.

According to a very reliable source that has this upgrade....
almost not worth it, and he said only a few minor things that
he could tell were upgraded.

To me it is like a $300 upgrade, that you could have done locally for another $300 ????????

This is just my opinion.

 

Sweet thanks man I will definatly be grabbing a cooler when I get back.

 

did that surprise you?
