High HP Auto guys chime in
I would like to know how many of you have had tranny problems with aftermarket transmissions running high horsepower, so if you could just list
1. sled pull/drag/daily driver/towing?
2. horsepower/torque level
3. any problems with tranny?
4. I don't want to start a trans war, so list your trans maker if you like

i have had no problems with my tranny. It is a daily driven 650+ hp cummins with a stage 4 allison 1000 series 5 speed. I will be pulling it in 2 weeks so I will see how it holds up.

2 - 628 HP/1366 ft-lbs at last Dyno. 450 hp around town and for work!
3 - ZERO problems with my DTT in 90,000 miles. Had billet shafts put in at 80,000 miles (on the tranny) and through inspection showed light wear & tear with no excessive heat signature anywhere!
I admit to being somewhat obsessive about protecting my investment.
I change tranny filter and Amsoil ATF (the 50% (12 qts) I can drain) @ 20,000 miles. Overkill?...maybe, but it works!

1. sled pull/drag/daily driver/towing? Daily, street, drag
2. horsepower/torque level, est. around 5XX/1XXX, tons more soon with the blue bottle.
3. any problems with tranny? Bolt fell off converter
4. I don't want to start a trans war, so list your trans maker if you like, Suncoast.
Im surprised Smokinrod had problems with Suncoast. All the top drag trucks are running suncoast. I hope when my nitrous is installed my trans can take it.

Either the truck won't ET or the hp numbers are way high. I know that BD twins won't support that unless there's a bottle involved. How much you think your truck weighs?? Watch this. http://powerbypoole.com/Gus%20kills%20viper.wmv
