sure it'll hold...but dont expect to run a tune any higher than a tow tune cause it'll start slippin bad with anything higher than that. I remember Shawn installing twins on his dually with running the stock trans and it didn't like it too much.

You dont think they will pop the hood and see twins on the motor, then void the warranty? Or you have some hook up? :naughty:

Clutches and valve body? since when did a 5r get a valve body? By clutches do you mean you have new clutches in the trans? Need a little more explanation to this

The stock trans should last a little while if you have it tuned conservatively, Matt moroni ran his like that for a little while until it blew itself up LOL

A modded direct solenoid and new clutches (with more clutches than stock) will work just fine, add in a converter later down the road? Thats what I did and so far so good.

190s will be plenty especially if used with 100% nozzles. More than enough to burn the tranny up.

Trans didnt blow itself up lol. i burned the direct clutches racing in redding while spraying the crap out of it (Ellertons Idea lol). Matt you will be fine as long as you are tuned correctly. If you decide you want to add the direct solenoid you need to tell your tuner. You will be looking for a tow truck if not lol. You can also mod the pump and run two solenoids if you run billet shafts. 190s will barely be enough fuel. it will clean up completely.
