Those kickdowns build tremedous cylinder pressure that a killer for stock rods. That why I refrain

Sure hope its a quick and in-expensive fix

Well i wish you good luck
You will be happy with the upgrade and you can tune it for more agressive shifts

Those cluches can hold about 800 lb/tq of the rear wheels

Damn; ported blower and few miles later = a bad tranny. This what I gotta look forward to; way to much power

Hey man; hope you get it fixed soon. It'll probably be my rods before my tranny.

BTW; the ported Eaton is up and screaming. I picked up almost 2 pounds of boost, and lost a whole lotta traction

Its wierd, I just installed my "other" ported blower yesterday, and BAM... my tranny goes, oh well, its better than a rod i guess. sorry about the lost traction, i experienced that myself
