Like stated in the title i just installed a Performabuilt lvl2 trans after my stocker went. The car runs fine for a while, but after an hour or so of driving the car doesnt want to lock up and it seems like the trans slips real bad. I then have to turn the car off and back on again for it to run normal. It did the same thing with the stock trans after I installed my Yank SS4000. Should i run 2 coolers? or maybe a cooler with a fan? Is heat whats causing this? Any suggustions or help is greatly appreciated here. Thanks.

I knew I should have installed a trans temp guage when i installed this trans.

Do you have an ideal what the temp is? Did you get the car tuned after the stall?

The car was tuned after the stall and I dont have a clue what temp the trans is at all i know is after a while of running the car the cooler seems hot as hell.

You could buy a laser temp gun to make sure its actually overheating.

I just dont see whatelse it could be. Its very frustrating though. I suppose this would be a lot easier if I knew what temp the trans was running at.

I know what you mean I'm having trouble with mine right now. I cant tell if its the trans or something else. No one can figure out what it is and I'm real frustrated.

I think you might have a code issue that is keeping the lockup form not working. Have you tried to scan your vehicle for codes? Vince

The thing is is the day i got everything done i had it out and put over 100 miles on it that night with no issues. Today i take it out i have an issue within the first 30 mins. The only difference between today and yesterday is that its a bit hotter today... 15-20 degrees hotter... I will get a scan tool and scan it tonight.

Yes sounds like you are setting codes possibly a po757 i would guess. or with no lockup possibily being disabled by engine missfire detection.
