Yep my tranny bit the dust yesturday night ............. But I got a loan and im gunna get a hughes performance 700r4 with a b&m tork master 2400. Trying to look on the bright side, blew my tranny but getting a badass replacement lol what do you guys think of the torque coverter? i dont have a ton of money for like a vigalante and i heard the b&m ones werent bad for the money plus i get the tranny and converter at cost from my work :rockon:

but i can also get tci ones at cost, so if the tci onea are better let me know

Sorry i kinda blabed on for awhile there but im excited haha anyway any opinions or suggestion on a good torque converter than can be purchased through summit would be rad thanks for the help

 

Yeah I think the tranny in my car may be going to. It wasn't shifting too well. I checked the fluid and it was low on the dipstick. It was on the add 1 pint line. The car is parked for the winter though so I will not know until August when I get home from Bascic Training and AIT in the Army. If the tranny is going I was planning on either getting it rebuilt with the Hughes rebuild kit or just getting the Hughes Tranny and a new 2000rpm stall torque converter.

 

yeah mine was slipping for a few months and i was trying to wait it out till i got the cash for a new one and them bam! lol last night it went. but i got a friend to loan me some cash so im in bussiness lol anyone got any suggestions on a good converter from summit I'm thinkin the B&M tork master 2400

 

just picked up all the goodies from summit and its goin in tomorrow ............. i cant wait

 

Do your self a favor, stay away from B&M torque converters. One out of three go away. TCI is a better. How much is the transmission costing you?, Which one is it?, How long is the warranty?

 

Haha I think my tv detent cable might be messed up cause my mechanic had to bend the metal bracket that holds it before the throttle body. He bent it because the throttle cable was so tight it would not let the throttle close all the way. So now I think that the detent cable might be out of whack. Oh well I won't have a chance to fix it until I get back form the Army in august.

 

i got it installed and am puickeing it up in the morning, whats the break in process for a new tranny in other words how many miles do i have to put on it before i drive it fairly hard?
