after 2 years i broke it
after 2 years i broke it any idea what broke?
ive got a ls1 60-e built...i launched on motor on the 1-2 shift there was a loud bang and i knew it was bad...no fluid spilt or anything but now i have no foroward gears...reverse binds when you put it in it...its like im on a trans brake...1st did work later when it cooled off but wouldent take much of a load other then idle...
it squeeks/clunks from the tranny...converter still spins, speedo doesnt work...

I would guess the low roller or rear planet is broken though it possibly could be the forward sprag also.
At any rate looking like it time for a trans or rebuild

what all parts will that take out? trying to get a money figure...i mean i was fopr sure this thing would burn up a 2-4 band or 3-4 clutch pack first...are those common to break?
They are one of the more common failures how much damage was done is hard to say without having it apart.
Was the unit built by a sponsors here I know several of us have some good deals on fixing units that break out of warranty?

this tranny has ben 9.90's (6.30 at 110) for over 2 years...with prolly 15k street miles, over 200 strip passes and probably 400 street passes...so i have no bad feelings about my builder at all...no clutch pack problems no band problems...anything
if i had a th350 or th400 id be happy to make it this long on a tranny...i called him today and he said he would fix it for parts alone...just having shipping problems now
thanks for the input guys...i pulled the pan and it has small chunks of metal in the front drivers side of the pan...looks to be near the return line...

That is not an uncommon failure especially if you run tires with a good grip. It is unusual that you still had some binding in reverse, typically you loose all functionality.
