I'm sorry I thought I asked for help, I did not know that there were so many waiting to flog a man. incidentally the stocker went 198k go figure???
You asked for help and opinions, I was asking questions to figure out what you meant, and so far your logic did not make sense to me, I am flogging no one.
Wow, way to not attack someone and beat them with your opinion. Wouldn't your post have been better served to give him ideas on how to beef up the trans he wants to buy, an not call him an idiot?
Op, I think the only way it will live is to go inside it with the previously mentioned mods. If you have a good core on hand I would just build that up instead of getting another stock trans.....
I did offer advice, I asked if he would consider spending the money on his current one to send and get rebuilt to handle that lt1 instead of spending it on a stock tranny with miles on it only to spend even more on a few better parts that still would not handle being flogged on with a lt1.
yes blue95 was rude but he was also correct to suggest not putting a stock trans in the truck
IF he had read a little more he would realized he was wrong and that the guy was gonna build up the trans on his own.
my input is you will save time and money to buy a pre built trans and just use that. my other opinion is to get rid of the lt1 and go with a lsx.
I do not feel I was rude, I asked questions and stated his logic did not make sense to me, he is asking for advice and opinions. I also backed up my opinion.
I do not understand why you would not spend that $900 on better parts that could go into the current tranny that would easily handle that lt1 instead of buying another and only putting a few upgraded parts in it and hope it holds.
See my logic?
You could easily buy a full upgraded rebuilt kit to handle that lt1 now and either do it yourself and take it to a shop and have it done for close to the price of a used tranny with miles on it and only a few better parts.
