SO, i havent taken my gov off and i get to 95 mph in 4th gear at 2500rpm, thats no where nearall the power i got, i think if i took the gov off i could get atleast 120, but how hard would it be to atleast drop in a 5 speed transmission, or even a 6 speed?

 

Drop one into what?

 

kids....

 

someones had more bers than me

 

haha w.e ill do it my self then!! haha

 

If you are talking about an automatic in that truck, no, you can't easily put a 5 or 6 speed automatic in, and it won't do anything for you anyway except give you a bit more pull off the line because 1st gear is lower. Top gear is pretty much the same ratio in all 3 transmissions.

 

Like glc said... No matter how many 'speeds' a tranny has, it's top gear is still only going to be around a 0.7:1 ratio... Maybe 0.6, but it'll start to bog the engine down at that point, just going thru the air at over 120mph...

Even if you only had a 2 speed trans, if it's top gear ratio is .7:1, then you'll still only get to that same top speed figure (sans speed limiting governor) as the engine is capable to go...

It's not like if I had a 100 speed bicycle, I can go any faster then I could in top gear then on a 10 speed bicycle....

I see in your sig it says you have a power adder intake eh. Do you even know what a power adder is? You blown? Turbo'd? Runnin' the bottle? If so then you would already have a tune now wouldn't you.



And if it's the company name then they really need to think of something else...

 

ooo i see, well the box says spectre performance and the filter itself says power adder.... happy? its the same as any k&N intake its a polished tube with a big red filter on it

 

Well assuming it doesn't say K&N then well... it's not the same as any old K&N.

 

Your gov is there for a reason. What speed rating is on your tires?

Tranny swap would be an actual project taking lots of planning, fab, time and money.
