don't waste your time with that level 10 crap. and pulling the tranny really isn't that hard, just heavy and you need help.

Get the monster box and do it right the first time.

Greg have you upgraded any more parts since I got mine done? Mines held up awesome with the abuse I give it!

Ive had good luck with level ten crap,somebody said they had some of the best intermediate dual sided friction plates,I have there convertor and shift kit and like it I'am getting ready to freshen it up but dont have the 2 grand for the monster.623 for the kit and 200 for the rebuild labor may not be as good just a cheaper alternative.

If/when my OEM trans. gives it up, I'll get FT's Monster Box but so far with 39,500 miles on it, my stock one is shifting fine. I had Red Line D4 synthetic fluid put in about 20,000 miles ago and yes, the line/pump pressure is raised thru the chip on mine.

I think Sal is quoting Wholesale price to shops.
As for how long they hold up Greg has one of my cores and can say more3 on what happended but it was not the clutches.Lost the plantarys in 3 and 4 he said he has not seen anything like that happen but how many of you run WOT for 40 plus minutes at over 150.Stan

I don't drink (which really only makes it worse) but I have an abcessed tooth, which hurts about as much as a traumatic amputation, and I haed a little Codiene to take the edge off.

(It's been a few hours and time for more, the last post was about 30 minutes after a dose... )

Until I get the root canal thingy done on Monday my life is two choices:

1) Watch Castaway again, pay close attention to how Tom Hanks takes out the tooth with the ice skate..

2) Take enough Codiene so that I need a seeing eye dog to get around

I'm leaning towards #2.
