I've replaced my tranny mount as well. Mine felt hella strong all the way until Saturday when suddenly it wouldn't use 1st gear. 127K on the clock. Different tranny going in tonight...

I installed a converter at 24,000 and the tranny was acting up at 27,000. Got another tranny and it went through 3 different converters cause i couldnt make up my mind and its got 47,000 on it now with a new tranny going in this weekend.

got the car at 45k, installed transgo "full race/high stall" shift kit and b&m deep pan immediately, installed 4k converter + tranny cooler @ 47k, i now have 60k on it with no problems, shifts perfect thus far. 50+ track passes and at least 200 "street" passes.

Bought the car with 39000 on it and at 44000 put 3500 stall and shift kit with cooler and deep pan, no at almost 80000 running strong and spraying a 100 shot at the track.

mine feels like it is trying to go ever since the stall went in about 500 miles ago, but then again the transmission has over 70k on it. i would recommend you get your car tuned as soon as you put a stall in, seems like alot of people don't and their tranmissions go soon after

Just over 75k and well over 100passes. Only thing done Vig3200 converter & cooler. I run regular dyno oil in it, but I do mix in 1qt of F-type to thicken it up some (been doing that for the last 25k miles trying to make it last).

55k miles.
installed the converter at 30k miles, installed the cam/headers at 40k miles. Most of my runs were WOT highway runs, i always thought that wasn't as abusive on the car/trans. Boy was I wrong, lol.
I was always super religious about the engine (best oil at very frequent changes, longer k&n oil filter, frequent coolant flushing, etc) but wasn't too familiar with the trans. With my new trans I've only gone WOT from a higher speed roll a handfull of times even though it could probably handle it much better than the stock one. Still run the trans cooler and now have a TCI deep pan on my stage III.
