Garrett Powermax Stage 2 GT3782R Install/Review
Probably not if your not modding any further If I had stayed a single I was probably going to look at similar setup to yours. Sounds like its treating you well and it's just different enough from most other people's

"built" 47RE woes
Honestly rogan - apart from the normal stuff like drop pan and have a look at the apply lever and bands and fluid condition - I dont think you'll get far here. Just trying to keep it real and get you moving quickly. Id call Jasper. Id call a couple transmission companies - Revmax ask for Frank. Tell them your situation - hopefully someone will help you. I feel bad for you - but anything I or anyone else says is likely to be a wild guess and send you up a goosepath quick. I would drop the pan though. Beyond that have to look at the linkages - have you climbed under and fiddled with the linkage assembly also ? :banghead:

Boost issue
Remember a fooler and a elbow does not equate high boost Fuel and a tight air system equates high boost

47RE by Cottman
Just go revmax then. They warranty their work. They were only company not to try and rip me off over phone. They will be a bit more expensive. Due to warranty and shop rate being a bit higher. If your going to do it - do it all now - else youll pay to drop it again for the TC.

47RE by Cottman
That wasn't doing it yourself ? $400-500 for parts (rebuild kit) $560 7 hours x 80 per hour. $50 in fluids $1k low end .... $1250 Extra costs are TC - say $1200 VB - say $450 Output Shafts - say $900
-
47RE by Cottman
Well here's what its costs http://revmaxconverters.com/about/shop/47re-b-high-performance-rebuild-kit then add ~6-8 hours labor to do the work and drop and reinstall. Beyond that you just factor in the price of a VB and TC and shafts. A full fresh rebuild of internals should be around $1k

Can we talk, or is it allowed to post about Obama Care?... couple Questions.....
Here's the thing. What does working hard entitle you to ? Do you work harder than the lady raising a family by herself, working 3 jobs paying minimum wage and cant afford to have her kids teeth fixed ? How about someone who came from a country where their life was in jeopardy for speaking out against something wrong ..... and now working cash construction jobs in Florida ? What happens if the US goes to crap on borrowed funds and you cant get a job or even milk (think depression) and your son/daughter tries to go to canada or some other country but cant legally work ? Will you feel the same way about support of healthcare to illegals then ? Honestly man don't get me wrong. I do not like supporting lazy people. I would do what I had to to help protect my family. I wouldnt not not help a mexican because he was hit by a car but was illegally in my country, and I wouldnt shoot someone because he was a bully or trying to take something from me. As for religion - well more damage and wars have been fought in that name than about all others - but that's a different topic. Yes I believe in god. No I don't believe he wants these wars and this way for us. In the end like I said - I guess its a different thought process. I think if we were ALL poorer - there would be less of a divide. Would you want that porsche/new car or 500k house if the normal for everyone was basic food and health, a 50k 3 bedroom and minivan. Everyone who works hard now thinks they are entitled to things and not thinking about people less fortunate to them. I'm not saying Im right either. Just trying to throw a different concept out there. I feel fortunate, Im not an illegal, not out of work, and lucky. I just dont think I deserve to right to tell someone else what he can or cant have/do because part of that money was mine and I worked hard for it. Wheres that get us as a society ? Finally - when your looking down at these people thinking all this about how hard you work and how much you deserve. Think about it the other way. How about the bankers and ball players you mention. What do you think they are thinking. Basically the same thing. They think you are lazy, uneducated and dont deserve things also. They think they are "gifted, harder working" and shouldn't be paying the high taxes on their many millions. They worked hard for it. Its always the "haves" that want to keep it from the "have nots". Its at the very core of our mentality/upbringing. I don't think that benefits anyone.

Can we talk, or is it allowed to post about Obama Care?... couple Questions.....
Hi man. No that's cool - I actually like talking about this stuff - but its always hard on forums as "context" is hard to say in words and things can be take wrongly. Yup to get back on track a little - I guess its not FREE anywhere. The point is there are countries that can make healthcare available with no/little out of pocket expense to anyone that requires it - all funded by the taxpayers. So why cant it be done here ?? I'm no fan of any politician myself, but if I had to pick a devil it would probably be obama for at least trying to tackle some of this. Obviously the cost is huge - but again Id rather fund someone getting to take their child to doctor than funding for a "pool" or "recreation facility" in Baghdad. I just wonder what the war bought us ? Anyway - I'm definitely not in favor for bigger government, wish they would turn over most things to private and let it be. Problem is what happens when your mom dies of a heart transplant because said company uses the "cheapest" tools for the job from china, rather the recommended tools for performing the surgery. All for profit. Gets tricky. Who dictates that ? In then end I would just rather see more people have more ....... even if others including myself have to pay more (taxes ?) ........ its ridiculous to see these kids on TV running around with 1000 watches, 100000 cars and have no understanding what that means to the average family. Agree tho no idea what the solution is ......
