Tranny swap?


Recommended Posts

are you sayin Rogan that i only got a 50-50 chance of liking the 5 or 6 speed? i'm sorta leanin toward just gettin my auto built to a stage 4 or something similar just short of a race tranny. since this thing makes my living it needs to be reliable:pray:. not sure whats :smart: right now:shrug:

I think it comes down to personal preferance. It may cost more to build a solid auto, but by the time you spend the money on a swap and a good clutch the difference may be marginal. Personally, Ive got a good auto built for towing and I love it. A standard will get a little better mileage running around town, but running down the road I dont think theres much difference, especially once the auto locks up. The only thing I plan on doing to mine is an eb when I can afford it.Other than that, Im really happy with it.

Well it looks like I'll keep the tranny I got. Probly get it built with BD and ATS parts. I already put in a good TC a while ago and so I'm already invested in it. I think I'll probly get BD's lock-up controller when i do it to at least get me the solid feel to each gear i want and better downshifting. I ges we'll see what all my builder recommends:spend::broke::broke:
