just what the title says i plan on getting a shift kit for my truck and how much horsepower can she handle. tc and vb are a little expensive

 

You got to pay to play

 

Depends on what condition your trans was in before the shift kit. I just installed a DTT shift kit, billet accumulator, and billet servo. With the mods in my sig I don't have any issues other than the stock converter stalls about the time I start defueling . I wouldn't go beyond 300hp or so without a billet input and a good triple disk converter. Autos aren't cheap but neither is getting towed AND having to do a rebuild.

 

i just but a kit in my VB works great. i need to get the gauges on it to see what kind of pressures its putting out but it shifts firm and clean. im about 400hp

 

any good brands that dont cost a lot of money for now looking for 500hp thanks for the help

 

DTT's kit is around $300 and I'm happy with it so far.

 

Baconbitsforyou is right

YOU'VE... GOT... TO... PAY... TO... PLAY...

just start saving your money and do one thing at a time. Thats what ive been doing the past two years. it sucks cuz theres a lot i want to do to my truck and would love to do it right now but i would rather spend the money and know my truck isnt going to fail rather than throw cheap *** parts at her. good luck man.

 

a billet single and shift kit would work for now, how much money do i need to spend to get to at least 550hp don't tow super heavy, or how much can i make with the billet single and shift kit. anything in 4-5 range works thanks

trying to go in the right setup might take a while

 

I put in a transgo kit. Shifts great!

 

put in a diesel performance converters single disk or a diamond t single disk and a shift kit that will help alot.
