i had a shop put in a b&m stage 2 kit its supposed to hold up to 450HP it used to be nice and hard ***** but after a couple mods its getting worse and worse. is it time for a rebuild or just swap to something that will support more power?

dont under estimate the 4.6 lol i was and it was still a close race.

but on the topic of my tranny. it is not slipping anymore. what do you think this could be? i dont want it to just give up one time i make a pull or something.

Mine also jerks hard from first to second. Other gears are fine though. It didnt look to bad from the videos? I dont really believe in modding a 13 year old transmission but that is just my opinion..

I agree with 350Vortec, I wouldnt mod an old warn tranny.
Also, was the shop reputable?
I brought my truck to a few shops to see if they would install a shift kit, got turned down quite a few times. The only shop that would do it wanted an arm and a leg to do it. Finally said eff it and took the plunge on the tranny I have now. Drives like stock under normal conditions, romp on it and its a monster.

yeah the shop is reputable, the owner is a close friend of mine. he told me what he did is the same thing he did to his pro stock camaro drag car. idk. he said it would hold 45hp no problem... does this mean im putting out close to that 450 mark?

if i were to go and get a new tranny. i was looking at this one and getting rid of my 4x4/

yeah he is in Sacramento. for all intensive purposes my hoe is bullet proof up to just the standard 9mm. but his shop does performance to the cars they armor. they want everything to perform stock or better.
