Car is 3 speed th400 with 2.10 first -- leaving at 12lb boost - 60ft was only 1.08 - the bigest change we made was 4 link set up and a new pair of real expensive shocks.
Ill add some pics -- if I ever get home. |

Way to go Curt. Number 2 Qualifier in Top Sportsman at Las Vegas. I think there were 51 cars in the class.

Thanks guys - the track got pretty cold or I think there was a 6.50 there - then the trans let go - again.

curt- not that your TH400 isn't big bucks already, but r u considering a different 3 speed trans similar to what langer runs?

Im not sure what Langer runs - but I believe it is a th-350 or th 200 dirivitive -- I think this 400 is supposed to be stronger - but uses up more power - John may correct me here?

Is it time for a 2 speed Lenco? or a big old Allison?
IIRC Langer runs a Proflite which is an A904/998 derivative weaker stock than a 727. |

I run a proflite. It can barely handle the power I have. Most of the "fast" auto turbo promods run the Rossler 400.

Curious to see what part failed. Rossler builds some pretty stout pieces.

ok - got it on the lift last night and pulled the pan -a lot of fine metal ad what looks like small pieces of bushing and not really any clutch material - at this point Im thinking front pump or convertor??? It did push out the front seal -- thats where the leak came from.

John -- what do you do to make that trans live? any special maintenence ect.?
|
#56

||||
|

I keep pushing the limits of the trans with each tq increase. Every time I break something in the trans, we engineer a new part to find the next weakest lint...

Curt. Who do you use for converter with this turbo deal? With HP numbers like you are making,it would take a pretty stout piece to handle all that power.

I am using a Neal Chance - it has been great in the past -- we will see this weekend when it comes apart - maybe the old girl cashed it in ??? I was getting ready to pull it out last nite and was kinda surprised to see that the front pump did not look like it got hot -- yet it pushed out the front seal -- hmmmm I hate surprises
