My trans is ****ed. Slips under 1/2 throttle or more.

I have some options.

Stock spec rebuild. The cheapest route.
Factory tech monster in a box with billet converter. Ford tech puts it together as side work. 2nd most expensive.
BTS trans rebuild. Expensive as hell, but bullet proof.

I am still regular mod (chip pulley intake exhasut) stock block truck. Built motor with spray this time next year possibly.

What would you do?

 

umm bts? f that most expensive = full Monster box .

I'd go with mobox rebuild kit.

 

Unoid... please use more letters, words and punctuation.

BTS is way overkill

I'd go with either a monster box if you can pull the tranny yourself, or a monster box rebuild kit if you are paying someone to pull the tranny (not a lot more labor to put it all together and you'll save a couple of bucks).

The monster boxes are essentially bullet proof until you do some seriously bad things to them.

 

I've got a Level 10 Tranny from JLP.
Its the same tranny they are running in their truck and doing well with my 530hp motor. Not as expensive as the monster box.

 

I don't understand. The BTS and Monster Box are both about $4K, right? Is there any other reason (besides loyalty to Gregg) that I should prefer the MB over the BTS?

 

Dealerjim told me the BTS is $3400 and I believe the MB is about $3200.

Both have torque convertors. The BTS is a PI and the MB is Gregg's own flavor.

Both have 2 year warranties.

 

BTS is unlimited mileage and power tho...

 

samiam513,

How many miles on the truck did you have when the trans started slipping?

 

lol when i pulled off the track and got out my truck had 20,000.3 i remember that clearly.

at 18k i was also racing, and at 19k me and a girl got stopped for "indecent behavior" in the truck.

i wondering what is going to happen at 21k?

 

Just so we are clear, I meant no disrespect to Gregg.

Quite the opposite – I already know that Gregg deserves the praise and loyalty that he gets. I am just looking for a technical explanation of why the BTS is “overkill" over the MB when it is priced roughly the same.

If my tranny went, I would install a MB.

 

I was going on the understanding that the BTS was significantly more expensive than the Monster Box.

If they are the same price, I haven't done enough comparison to know which I would go with.

All I know is Gregg's work holds just fine, so anything above it is overkill to me.
