how much can i turn up my 12 valve
#21
Im in shock no one has ever heard that before? Ive see it on the forums many of times, had multiple transmission shops tell me that, and seen it happen first hand on my 47re, not only that but my father who was a mechanic for years saw it multiple times. Doing a tranny flush will most definetly open a can of worms on a high mileage transmssion if the transmission was neglected on fluid changes. Surely im not the only one to know this?

From what I read, Dodge detuned the engine for the autos, because before the detune the transmission couldn't hold that power. If it's your only vehicle, I wouldn't add any power until you have a built up tranny... Some last a while with more power, some blow quick on stock power.

Turn up the line pressure a bit in the valve body; better yet get a shift kit. Make sure you call the company to get what YOU need, look into governor springs and valve springs. Biggest bang for the buck. Won't harm the trans either. Grind yourself a 100 fuel plate and keep in stock location. Do a BAHF and straight pipe/Hiflo muffler and lately bump the timing to 16*. I'd call it a day and after that if your not ready to drop a grand on your trans.
