brodie, I know you just got back to the states so I am not expecting you to have these but what makes the trans spool us faster and make it take "less power to make things move?"

Ive got 142k on my trans and it still works fine but murphys law tells me while I swap out my blown I5 for a 5.3 the trans will go a month later if I dont rebuild it now :)

I am likely going to be a transmission transpalnt recipient by the end of 2015 as well... considering that the this is the third OEM trans (all were under warrenty before) and I know this one is on its on it way out I plan and replacing with a built unit like the one in this thread.... so let him know that he may have a second customer when you talk to him next!

Trans 1 lasted 35,000km's (21,748 miles)
Trans 2 lasted 25,000km's (15,534 miles)
Trans 3 currently has 45,000km's (27,961 miles)

Considering I am putting out around 430-440HP I guess I would be the best person to test this trans package out:woot:

Brodie, on your you-tube video you said the early lock up was letting you get more power to the wheels faster. I see here you are using an 1800 stall, isn't stock ~1550 and doesn't a higher stall allow it to rev into the power band? I understand that you don't want it to slip and give up power, but can you elaborate on your dyno run results?

Well rsc I can't give you that classified information. Only because I don't remember it but I'm sure it's written on paper somewhere. I'm still deployed, I ended up working with SOCOM so I've built and rebuilt more vehicles than I ever did at home. I've learned more about what it take to make something reliable and indestructible literally. And working with SOCOM we get a lot more freedom to build cool stuff. The one time a year I come home I do work on my rig. This last time I built another crazy transmission, my dream transmission. I can now break all 4 tires loose on pavement.... I doubt I will come back to answer questions, and for the people that read this forum here are a few Easter egg photo's for you....

Thanks Brodie. I've been on plenty of contracts myself and know exactly what you've got going on over there. Take it easy and thanks for the pictures. I always liked that H3SUT idea since I first saw it years ago.
