My friend just got his '85 camaro (~45k miles) done with a 355 and auto tranny. A conservative rating for this engine is 350HP at the crank. Well last night he blew the front seal on the trans and is getting it fixed, not even with a rebuild. I think he's on the way to breaking something else and now he tells me he's putting a 100 shot on it! Is this going to blow something up very very soon like I think, or is he ok as long as he doesn't spray off the line?

 

It's dead. I'm estimated at about 350 RWHP and totalled my professionally rebuilt trans (built for more power) after 4,000miles

JMHO

 

hey now!!!

it wasent the main seal btw

 

so, what my tranny thta was just pro rebuilt, with new clutch packs,s ervos, and all that is going to blow cause my engine is putting out 350 horses? hmm I odnt know bout that one. TONS of peopel are puttin out that much and are just fine. Even after drag racin.

cheers
