anyone try or have one of these im thinking

 

search, only a few got'em and not a lot of info out there other than its (currently) better than gm's 6l80e since its beefier and they claim will hold 850hp

 

They are an interesting idea but a poor exicution. They pump the paddle shift feature that does absolutely nothing when you downshift. The transmission has zero engine braking.

 

I actually have one in my 67 Camaro and love it. It does everything its supposed to. It is mated to a crate motor 502 and after installing, my 1/8 mile times went down and it up shifts and down shifts better than my turbo 350 did. And with the overdrive, I can actually get on the interstate and drive now. I installed it with the new trans controller they offer and it makes it really trick. I can switch mine from manual shift to automatic shift which I think is really cool.
Its a little expensive but if I had to do it again I would. And by the way, I love the paddle shifter. I say go for it!!

 

thanks how many miles do you have on it ive got a built t56 hardend gears different main shaft ect...double disc blaaa blaa ect but we are putting a 427 lsx twin hair dryer mast headed motor in this time and i think i want a auto tranny

I have put about 5000 hwy miles and about 40 1/8 mile passes on it up till now. My TCI tech guys name was Kevin. Give him a call, he was a huge help and nailed the converter setup.
