rebuild time.

**mghawk57** · 03-07-2008, 11:20 AM

Rebuild +1

**GNICTRY** · 03-07-2008, 11:23 AM

i have heard they dont hold very well after a rebuild? True or false

would replaceing it with a new one be better?

What would i need to rebuild it?

What would be involved in switching to a manual? Is it worth it?

For the stall it is really up to how you want it to drive, probably anywhere between 3000 and 3500 would be good.

The tranny cooler i just went for the biggest one that i could find, this is the one i bought http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...m=320154530250 and i have been happy with it.

K i bought the trans as mentioned on post #8.
Now I have mods in sig with stock suspension and gears.
Cam will come with asap but in the mean time...I want to go ahead in install a stall while I am switching trans. I want to get a tci but not sure on size? Keep in mind I dont have much to spend so possibly a used you w/ low mileage. Not sure when I would have time / money for tune either? Suggestions?!
Also the car is my dd with 104k.

**GNICTRY** · 03-11-2008, 06:03 AM

tried one 4l60e never do another! but they are guys on here that can do it.
a new one would have a warranty, Yes a manual would be worth it IMO.

**GNICTRY** · 03-11-2008, 09:12 AM

lockup or not lock up stall?

**mghawk57** · 03-11-2008, 09:18 AM

**GNICTRY** · 03-12-2008, 03:30 PM
