new trans ideas
 

Im planning on building my dodge 06 auto soon (tax return). I know most places have warrantys,but if i can save $ i will. so my plans are to someday hit 600hp. I've looked for many builders like ats, dave goerend,dtt diesel performance,a few locals,and some others. i was curious if anyone has advice on these or what i should do.

if i was you this is what i would do on a budget. good luck, otherwise goerend seems to be the best

Line em up, and find out which one can do the same transmission w/ warranty length, max hp and torque values. Granted, they're all gonna vary pretty good. But saving a $1000 because one can handle more power, but ends up w/ a short warranty length might sound good at first, but your gonna pay another $4000 to have it gone through because the warranty was only for 30 days, and not 3 years, or whatever is offered.

i alos left out the part its my daily driver at times and i do tow a gooseneck at times weighing around 18k or 20k

My self I would not have a ATS transmission in my truck, stick with either a Goerend or Garmons transmission.

I have heard great things about Goerend :tu:

ok talked to a local builder he says for 4200$ i can have a built trans and not have to even touch the truck. he says hes tested his trans up to 850hp and 1500tq and also capable of pulling 50k pounds..
