i can tell you from personal experience, the auto tranny is just fine. i ran 12 psi for about a day or 2 but we tuned it down to 9-11 ish for the stage 2 kit back in the day.

i was on a stock motor and tranny. all i added was a tranny cooler. i had egt and boost gauge and that was it. All RRM all good.

 

was your 227 whp on the 12 psi?

 

nope the 227 was on 10 ish psi.

the 12 just got the egt's too high and at the time we didnt want to tune it that aggresively as it was to be a mass produced kit.

if i still had it i would have gone into custom tuning with RRM and i see 12 a do-able but by no means is that an official answer. that is a blow up your engine at your own risk opinion.

 

wow thanks

-off topic for a sec, but when u say external tranny cooler, is that diff. from like an external oil cooler or is it the same?

 

External Trans cooler is a good idea.

^^^^^^ MY inspirational hero! ..... seriously!

 

a tranny cooler is the same idea as an external oil cooler. You just tap into the lines to the stock cooler then run it to the external one then back to the return line. Easy, cheap insurance.

Thanks Rock you still da man!

 

i'll definitely have to read up more in detail on this!
