Update: purchased a 62/68/.91 and a 44mm JGS external gate from Taylor. Now to decide between Suncoast or DTT for trans parts and it's on!
Are you building the tranny yourself with a DTT or Suncoast kit? Or buying a complete tranny?
Just curious....
firepunk gets my vote
Well I decided to call DPC and Phil hooked me up with a billet input cheaper than anyone else could. He then sent me TRE Diesel Performance for all the tranny parts and Tim over there hooked me up good. I have all the parts ordered and headed my way. Can't wait to get a tranny in her that will hold some power instead of slipping. Then it's time for the twins :evil
told you man he would hook you up. one of the few people that doesnt make you buy a billet flex plate. sells you one thats certified and cheaper.
Do you have a 727 or 518?

I maybe wrong but I'm pretty sure they are the same length.

You need to shorten it.
re drill holes in frame OR crossmember to move it back 1.5 inchea.
modify 4x4 linkage slightly
Cut hole bigger in floor for shifter. Factory boot still works just barely..
lengthen front driveshaft.
add ground switch for lock up on demand
add pressure switch for automatic lockup.
get different trans dipstick. I used a lokar.
oh ya buy the beat darn flexplate ever.
I ate two newer 47re versions and certified.
I run a bd now..
Curious to see how yours runs as my build will be similar
I have stage 5 colt cam
215 built pump
nitrous
valve springs
pushrods
and a 240gph fass sitting on the bench.
oct early is build month
