5r110 Limits LMAO

[Pizza pig]

i dont recommend spraying vgt's a lot without tuning made for spray, you'll over speed it. There are plenty that do however.

its going to take a lot of spray to clean up full fueled 190's and you probably wont even clean it up completely.

 

[imelmo]

Mine was getting sprayed AND had a Procharger feeding it and it was fine. Not recommending it by any means, but it can be done.

[Mdub707]

Not sure. I'm about to try it with some 290's though. LOL

I'm hoping the turbo is as tough as the stocker or a 38r.

I will be interested to see how you make out. Keep us posted! (I'm sure you will)

That's kind of what I was thinking.

I drove my stocker 90k miles with 50k miles of that being on a race tune. Installed 190s and an ssx and the clutches just wouldn't hold any more. Replaced the forward, intermediate, direct and overdrive clutches/steels with a new direct solenoid and direct apply piston. Continuing to daily drive and it doesn't skip a beat.

An a side note I couldn't believe how well it shifted on the original frictions and steels...every single friction was black. Oh and the direct clutch was shaved smooth and looked like a wave spring.

 

[Mdub707]

Silverback, what would a repair like that cost a guy?

thats how mine were exactly, but I had 174k on it and a bad direct solenoid.

I used the suncoast clutch rebuild kit that includes all new clutches and steels, pistons, new direct solenoid, and a ford seal/gasket kit (suncoast's version doesnt include everything) and im still waiting for doug to send me back my gogo direct solenoid. I used a new ford converter with the plan of switching to a river city ultimate converter when its time for a turbo/turbos.

theres nothing wrong with doing what silverback did, all my clutches were fine except for the direct, it was TOAST. The stock converter is good for a good amount of power as it is a tripple disk design, and for $280 from the dealer plus core you cannot beat it.

putting a BTS in a 667 hp 6.0 right now. will see how long it will last, The one we took out only lasted a few months and it was one of thoes home built trannys LOL. And it came back with a stock pan on it. Tuneing is the biggest problem with these brian says.

 

[smokinstroker]

My BTS hasn't skipped a beat

 

[patrickke]

What pan does Brian put on the 5r's?

 

[Pizza pig]

pretty positive he uses a stock pan, the deep pans on these 5r110 is pretty useless.

 

[smokinstroker]

Stock, he told me not to put on a deep pan.

I was told it's still a large single disc.

All 5 have stock pans that i have. Its what he has always told me.

Well My convertor crapped out friday. Hoped it was a solenoid but nope looks like the convertor crapped out. Looks like a stocker is going back in. Where did you find a stocker for $280? My local dealer wants $550 and a tech there says it cost $450 at his cost.

 

[Pizza pig]

My local dealer, but tousley ford has it for $285 + 70 core online! I was going to get it from them, but my local dealer actually had one.

You have a suncoast converter? is it not warrantied?

I don't know if it is or not .I'm not sure of there warrenty . It Was in the truck already when I got it off Dustin (Dustball8504).

Parts are real cheap, I did all the labor myself so I was only out $150 with fluid and all, that's if you can get parts at cost. Typically too R&R and rebuild you'd be looking at around 10 hours labor.

Mike, i paid 2700 said and done

Suncoast rebuild kit and gaskets etc -$1100
Ford converter $285
Fluis and filters $135
Labor- $1000

Local guy on here knows his **** and did a wonderful job.

I second the RCD Ultimate Converter for the build.

Nope, it's a triple disc.

Thanks man. I should be good for a while, just kind of curious what it'd cost. I think a stocker will hold up just fine for what I have now, and for future plans anyways. I doubt I'd ever go over a 175-190cc injector. Still need it streetable and able to tow.
