TRANNY RATINGS

TEXSN95 · 08-05-2001, 08:59 AM

Thanks for the info unit. Since I'm pushing about 380 ft lbs, is something bound to break on my tranny sooner or later? It shifts great, with only a slight 3rd gear grind, and I've beat the hell out of it since I got it at 74k (now has 104). How do they come up with these ratings, and how accurate are they? My buddy who just bought an 01 GT is paranoid about breaking his tranny. I told him what I thought the rating was (300) and he said "Oh phuck...I'm screwed". Didn't ford start using the tremec 3650 in february? His was made before then, so that's why he is so paranoid.
