Yeah, and man it's a freakin beast! But..get this...the guy I bought the tranny from has his own tranny shop, so he assured me it would hold up to 600+hp, he said he built it for his BB truck. Well so I bought that and the converter from him. Well ever since I finished my truck I've been trying to get the tranny worked out, hasn't been shifting right, 1-3, etc...well 20 miles on the truck and the tranny is fried! The truck just had to much hp/tq. Tranny's toast.

So I have to pull it out of the truck and take it back to him, and he's going to rebuild it, then I'm selling it and the converter. But I'm getting ready to order a TH-400 for it, brand new from a reputable shop, anyone have any suggestions?. I was thinking of going with a transbrake on this one.

So I'm guessing it won't be too long before I have the new tranny in, and the truck is on the road again. It's been snowing here , so I wouldn't have been able to drive it anyway.... I'll keep ya updated.....and I'm thinking of going with a big blower in the future!

See ya later.
