I was looking at getting a stall in the future for mt lt1. I was gonna get a 3400. Unsure of the brand still can anyone reccomend a specfic brand. I want it to be streetable. Also i wanted to get a trans cooler? Any certain brands reccomended? Around how much would this cost to get installed at a trans shop? Would i be better off going to a performance shop and getting it done. How much higher would prices be there>? thanks

I highly recommend Fuddle Racing. They are one of the sponsors here. Right now they are on sale, at $359
b&m 24,000 gvw tranny cooler. around $60
total installation should be $250 to $350, depending on area and the shop

Any shop that can remove and reinstall the tranny could do it

But you're missing a piece from the equation

I'd highly recommend buying and installing a transmission temperature gauge, to keep your eye on tranny's temp. You don't want it to overheat, and these torque converters *do* produce lots of extra heat ..

hey im getting a new converter and i will be selling my old one. Someone in nj would be nice since shipping would be nothing. We might even be able to get a deal on getting it installed they swap mine out and put the new one in and take the one i have and put it in your car. I have a midwest 3,000 stall with a 2.0 str. At the track i droped .4 in the 1/4. Car drives very close to stock. If you want you could stop by and drive my car to see how you like it. Im upgrading cause i want more stall speed. Ill sell it to you for 250 obo. I have been looing around for places to get the new one installed and the best place i seen so far was ttperformance in clifton for 350.. I had my last one installed at a local trans shop and it was 500. I also called around to 30 other places and the price was around 600 including cartek...

By the way, didn't notice you are in Central Jersey

I could tell you of a place not too far away from you, that'll install it for $250.
Thats where I got mine installed.. They aren't a sponsor here, so if you want details - PM me
