5r to 4r100 swap

[jdgleason]

Erics truck makes more power than mine? maybe with two stages

Run it through the calculator........

 

[SSpeeDEMONSS]

118mph at 8900lbs is 992hp at the wheels.

124mph at 7600lbs is 983hp at the wheels.

How about the difference in elevation and truck size too? That has to be worth some more power.

Ive went 10.80 at 126 before on fuel no nitrous dont know where you get the 124 at

 

[Craig@MFI]

Non of this really matters if the orignal poster wants a 4r100 let him get a 4r if he wanted a 5r he would have bought it
in my truck my first 4r lasted 100+ track passes and about 40 dyno runs and 15k on the street of me driving it everyday beating the piss out of it always on the same tune i went 10.80 at

My whole point in this thread is where is there proof that a 5r will hold without a issue

HP is HP and if they calculate to the same thats pretty funny LOL

The one thing tho is the faster you go with the 5r the worse it seams to shift mostly because of the electronics, shawn ellertons truck is what keeps me thinking that a 5r will work fine no matter what.

I will also say that my truck did NOT like the innovative 3.01 tunes, with my gearhead tuning the truck shifted consistant everytime, it may have not been ideal shifts, but it shifted everytime the same.

Erik's truck is on 8" of lift with 37's as well. Here it is at bandimere during the dpc.

All I'm saying is that Erik's truck makes more power than the supposed limit of the 5R110 is, and it isn't having issues. In reality, I believe that Erik's transmission is under more stress than Craig's due to the weight and the tires.

Thats the only number you have actually posted, no one knows you've gone 126 because you never post a slip... thats how assumptions get started, thats why i post as many facts as i can, so people cant skew them into thier own numbers.

You've put 15k on that truck in 7 months?

I'm saying that Erik's truck IS proof that the 5R WILL do what you're saying it won't.

 

[Dzchey21]

I did find a slip in the fuel only thread of 125.5 mph, not that its important but you get my point Corsilli also says right in the thread that its 126 but the slip says 125... LOL

This sort of applies to the OP tho, its the pro's and con's of the swap

 

[Dustball8504]

I love these threads lol

[Mike@MPD]

Holy driving! LOL

The only fuel number that I remember was 776 on haller's dyno back last year...

It went 12.90 in phoenix LOL It has always made good torque though... It made 16xx on fuel at Haller's and 2430 at the dpc.

Eric's truck is badass hands down!! I'll push the limits of the 4R next season, haven't had luck at 800hp, let's see it what it does at xxxxhp. Shone's 5r fee's awesome every time you roll into the throttle, and that's 1040hp on fuel available at a push of the throttle

In the video's you posted of the white truck. What were ya'll using to control the trans shifting?

I like this guy

I'm enjoying this, i don't mind getting more than what i bargained for, and when the time comes to decide if i want to do the swap, i will be refering back to this thread

 

[bigrpowr]

What keeps getting overlooked is the 5r Craig HAD. And im sure Corsili as well, they were/are pos.

Yea that everything we have out here unless you guys over there make it....
give brian a call and see what his thoughts are on a 5r and listen to a guy thats been building trans longer than anyone on here and he will share some knowledge
