Hey guys....

Are any of you running the Trinity 4l80e Trans transbrake? They are not a sponsor so I cannot link them, and I'd ask that no one else does either...

Their brake is more affordable than the other unit (nearly half) that I had been looking at and it fits in a stock pan as well....

anyone?

 

not yet but maybe in the spring

 

Rossler has a brake thats working well in the 4l80

 

does it allow you to retain fully automatic shifts? that is what i love about Rosslers

 

transgo was supposed to be bringing out a brake shortly, dont know anything about it yet

 

Yes, it works very well. They were the 'other guys' I was referring to. That thing must be dipped in gold.



yes it does, and it also works with their MVB... and it fits in the stock pan.

 

Wonder if the Transco FMVB kit ,will convert over in to the Trinity transbrake valve body

 

I think I'm going to get the Rossler. Looks real nice. Hopefully this will help me make some boost off the line.

 

so no one has used one...

 

I'll be installing a Trinity Brake in a 4L80 tomorrow. I'll give feedback on the install and quality tomorrow. We'll have to wait on feedback from the customer until after the New Year I believe.

 

I think i am going the rossler route but info on the trinity would be helpful as i just got my 4l80e yesterday

 

Excellent!

Thanks for taking the time to provide some information.

 

update?

 

Sorry forgot about this post.

Nice brake. Well made. Easy install. I installed it with the Trinity full manual VB kit.

I gave Randy ( I'm horribl with names, so I hope I remember right) some feedback on a couple of improvements he could make (new seperator plate) but it's definitely worth the $.

I'm waiting on feedback from the customer as far as how well it works.
I didn't install the trans in the car.

 

Thanks Jake Let me know any feedback you receive. Also new spacers plates are ordered.

 

Pm sent to Trinity.

 

Are you guys new sponsors? Didn't think you were when I made the post so I did not make a link to your website.

I am glad to hear that you are and I look forward to checking out your product.

 

Yes we just signed up last week? Let me know if you have any questions.

 

I will add,
the customer service at Trinity was top notch. They got me a brake out Next Day Air so I could get the trans done on the customer's (and mine) schedule.

I'll definitely be using them again in the future.

 

Trinity how hard is the transbrake to install, can I do it with simple hand tools?? I know very little about transbrake setups? All I know is that it lets me leave at more RPM's maybe you guys can enlighten me?

I knew Rosler had a brake setup for around 595, but you have to put in a aftermarket pan ($150-$220 easy), and I didn't want to mess with it.
Your setup seems more straight forward.

Would I need to have any tuning done for it to be correct??
I have an LT1 car with a TCI control box (no manual shifts for me) to control my 4L80E and my Twist machine paddle shifter. But I would love to have a Trans brake for the track.
