I sorry to hear about the tranny, by any chance have you tried a manual 1-2 shift or is it parked as of now? When my tranny starts to get pretty warmed up at WOT I SLAM into 2nd. But if I do a WOT manual shift it's as smooth as could be. not really sure why.

You'll have more power to the ground with a good build (Like you need more of that ) - Well, that's the best perk of a trans built for your power. Not to mention the fact - It will last!!!

Mannn, you have to get that thing to the track when you get her goin again. I wanna see what she can do.

Good Luck Joey

Built54 you will love the DDP, I am happy that I finally have a trans that I can go out on the weekend and beat on without getting a trailer ride home. I went through two factory trans and I was nice to them. I have beat on the DDP launching it on slicks at the track and never had a problem. I am in the process of piecing together a built motor and I know when I get it done and in I wont have to worry about breaking the trans.
