My first tranny in my truck had 213,075 miles before i pulled it to put a more reliable tranny behind my 383. My new tranny has 27,000 on it. Both had B&M shift kits and corvette servos.

When my old 305's oil pump went bad and fried the motor the tranny had 218,*** + miles on it and i never had any prob with it i just put a bottle of lucas tranny fix in it just to do it and just made it a tad smoother but never had any probs with it before or after. we will see though when i put my 310 in though how long it will hold up

I know this is a different tranny, but I have 189,985 on my tranny without any fixes. It is a four speed, and the engine was replaced in 92 but the tranny is still going strong.

Re: How many miles on your tranny?
85 iroc 305 tpi 171,000 trouble free miles about 3 0r 4 transmission filter changes. the only other trouble i have had out of the car in 17 years is alternator, water pump, fuel pump. electric radiator fan, thats it besides the normal maintenence items. i guess this is the best car i ever owned.
