Message: [QUOTE="Strictly Diesel, post: 1545666, member: 1411"] Finally got around to swapping out the transmission. I had kept the fully built John Wood unit from my race truck, so now my old dinosaur has a trans that cost me almost as much as I paid for the truck! Oh well, one less thing to worry about. We do have to fine tune the VB as the shifting is a bit firm for a low power street truck (was previously behind a compound turbo'd, twin pump, 400cc setup). [ATTACH=full]178717[/ATTACH] Was a good time to check out the up-pipes for leaks and tighten a few loose exhaust manifold bolts. [ATTACH=full]178718[/ATTACH] This flexplate was on its way out, glad I got to it before it broke. [ATTACH=full]178719[/ATTACH] Billet flexplate from the race truck took care of the impending failure nicely! [ATTACH=full]178720[/ATTACH] Out with the old... [ATTACH=full]178721[/ATTACH] In with the...er...somewhat new! Will have to pull the VB apart some weekend and see which way it is setup. We changed it so many times due to adding nitrous, removing nitrous, etc...who the heck remembers how it's setup now. I was hoping that the TC would have a bit higher stall, but apparently I had too much taken out of it when I had it refreshed (it was a lot higher in the race truck, so I had some taken out for the street build...probably should have left it alone). No biggie, will just have to pull it and have it restalled again later if I decide I'm not happy with it. [/QUOTE]
