Weekendwarrior432 I think...
It's an elite stage 3. Full billet. Suncoast HD. I think he's wrecked 3 inputs, but never a trans, and I'm not sure on the converter.

Corb I've broken that same part which is in the picture on your first post atleast 3 darn times on a built nadp trans in my 6L... I have a stock tranny in my truck now,it sure is incredible how reliable these stockers are unless you spray the crap out of it and burn the clutches..lol

Dont know if it has been posted or not Corb, talk with the tuners about a shift kit combined with upping the line pressure in the tuning. Like I said in the last thread, install a shift kit, use stock shift pressures in the tuning.

Mine is stock Corb. I am just speaking from tuning gas engines. The reason is too much pressure when the shift starts and things change.
I am running the street tune with delayed OD and TC lock. I like it a little better than the firmer because it is not as jerky.

I run a late lock TC set up as well. Truck likes it better.

Chris,
Before you tear into it. Get your tuner to return the converter lockup to stock. Meaning the ramp rate.
I bet that fixes it.
The other option is Phil@DPC and I have an idea for a converter that should last.

Tadd,
I'm running Phils DPC right now. It was also the one that self destructed with my stock trans. I ran the Spartan 275 EL on the stock trans, and then put a DPC TC in there, with a 71mm upgrade, and still ran the same tune. DPC lasted a week... Def not bashing him, as I know he makes a great product, and he went out of his way to take care of me when it went. But his current TC is not working for me. And, I believe, that this DPC is on its way out as well...
And Matt at Gearhead is tuning for me, and has the trans file labeled as "STOCK TRANS FILE" so as to ease the shifts a bit. Still pretty jerky for me, but, I am a rare case, as I have no ankles to absorb any bounces... Again, I havent towed over 5 K with it. I have not raced it, I have not done a single boosted launch, and 90% of my driving is on the highway, with the tc locked...
I beat the hell out of my stock tc, on race tunes, boosted launches, flooring it at 35 mph, etc, and am scared to do any of that with a trans that everyone else seems to be able to beat on... ***in sucks...

Thats what I am thinking too... Ill essentially have an upgraded clutch pack in a stock trans... My last stocker, lasted 130,000 miles, on the stock fluid... I think that with regular service, this one should last at least as long... LOL
Yup. I have had good luck with the early locks for as much city driving as I do, but, with having the 250 back soon, and one of my bikes completed, finally... I will likely not use the fat girl to get around on near as much...

No, I def got it. Just stating that I had tried aftermarket for long enough... I'm ready to go 130 k on another stocker... If they sort out a TC that will last as long, or longer than my stocker, I'll give her a go. Gettin tired of guinea pigging stuff... LOL 1 1/2 years without my 250, 4th Trans in a month, on the truck that was supposed to be a mild, reliable rig, I see just a fraction of why Mikey waved deuces...
