Another Tranny thread! My tranny really does not like the new found HP due to my latest mods... What is Dave's number and how long of a turn around is it for parts? I have a mod list that goes like this....
PATC 3200 Stall Torque Converter (stock is 2000 to 2200)- 399.00
ZZPerformance Input Shaft - 359.95
TEP Clutch Master/Volvo Rebuild Kit - 179.95
TEP Recond. Input Clutch Piston - 19.95
TEP Input to Sun Gear Bearing - 6.95
TEP 4t65e Lube Dam - 3.95
TEP OE Stator Support / Drive Sprocket Bearing - 7.95
TEP Transgo 4t65e Shift Kit(set on medium firmness) - 59.95
Intense 3.29 - 15/16ths Gear Ratio Conversion Kit(stock is 2.93s) - 450.00
Intense 34 tooth vss reluctor wheel
right now it sits at a little over $1400 in parts. I have been saving for this day for a while.
These are the tranny mods that I plan on ordering. Future mods to this car will be a cam and intake and maybe some N20 if i keep it that long. I was considering 3.69's (still up in the air) but I don't know if I will keep it that long to cam it to get the full use of the 3.69's with the cam. I was looking at a 228r cam from Texas Speed or something in that range. Is there anything I am overlooking that I need to add in order for this tranny to never break again? Please chime in!

Yes it takes a while from Dave,but you will be happy with your results.Best thing to do if you have some down time for your car is ,send your own trans in for rebuild
.So you dont have to wait for a core and pay core charge
.So you dont have to wait for a core and pay core charge Dave is super busy but well worth the wait. I live 15 minutes from him/his shop and even I have to wait for stuff most of the time, but like I said, definately definately worth the wait. His quality is top notch, and he stands behind his work 110%.

that is the plan at least. Trying to work our a deal with the dealership (i am friends with a service advisor) to pay for the labor if I pay for the parts. My car still has a warranty and I do not want to pay for another transmission that is going to fail again eventually. Plus, I plan on doing a few more mods that will need stronger parts to handle all the stress I will be putting on them.
