I killed it
 
well i finally killed the GT special. my trans slips all to hell. i think ive kept the heat to a minimum getting it home, so im hoping for just soft parts and no bluish metal grimlens deep inside.

anyhooo there are several goodies in it.

5 star converter
billet flex plate
my valve body
billet servoes
extra direct friction
billet input
apply lever
strut and anchor

its a weekend warrior primarily, seldom tow normally empty but it gets driven hard when i drive it. it has a few more ponies than the geo.

im looking to put steel planitaries in it and a name brand valvebody. any other neat little parts any of you would advise while its out of the truck? this is a VERY $$$$ limited rebuild keep in mind. truck is in the mid 500hp as it sits with the potential for 600hp

this trans has about 15k of being mean to it and hasnt been in the 400hp range for years and years. minus to 2 cool points for you.

Just being a smart ass. I couldn't resist!

turbo2332 03-08-2014 09:37 AM

its ok cool points can be reclaimed. most of the big money is already spent on this trans. it should be a soft parts rebuild... i hope. may up some clutch counts in the other drums too?

I would, but we've already established that I go overboard on transmissions.
