4R70W > TR3650

[WydOpn]

All problems set aside, is anyone gonna try to convince me that an auto is as much fun to drive???

 

[stangGT97]

each transmission (manual vs auto) has it's pro's & con's I guess, depends on what you're primarily doing with the car.

U.M.

QFT!

IMHO, I don't think the 3650 will hold up as well at the 4R70W. I had a 4R70W in my '98 v6. When I sold it, the car had 107k on it and I had not one problem with the tranny. I had 3.73's in it too from about 25k on. I beat the living piss out of it on a daily basis, at the track, and I even did neutral drops too (when I was young and dumb). To the day I sold it, it not once slipped, misshifted, or anything. I really doubt my 3650 will hold up to that much abuse.

Who makes a bell housing that will mate that GM 4-speed to a modular block?

lol... never thought id see a mustang group arguing that auto's are better. even if it is.. automatics are still boring, unless your talking built auto running 10's, cause i know somebody would say that.. but the stocker, i drove my friends and man its not even a mustang its so boring

theres more user error in a manual trans then there is in a auto, if a manual was properly cared for and professionally driven

in a street car
manual>auto

but depending on what your needs are an auto may fit your needs. for drag racing an auto would be better for matching et's

T3650 > 4R70W

I think you auto guys are just jealous...or lacking in the "package" dept...so you have find things to bash just to make you feel better. Quit sipping your cappuccino and get a real mans tranny...

 

[donsbad68]

heh I'm standing behind my manuals and wouldnt have an auto for a boat anchor

The only time I miss my auto is at the track. But as soon as I hit the streets, I totally forget about that.

the auto takes out driver errors. It doesn't allow you to mess up. You cant miss a shift with an auto. With a 5 speed if you miss a shift well you have problems. Check out dyno numbers between the 2 and you will see your ?> arrow turn to a <. So to sum it up the greather then sign comes down to driver. On a bolt on 2v car with no power adders a t45 or 3650> auto. Of course with the right driver. I have the same power as a couple of guys and mods and i've gone a tenth faster(i'm 100lbs heavier)..with a broken tooth and messed up sincro...auto had 4200 stall & valve body). Ouch that sucks 5speed all the way

Getrag>Tremec>Auto.

 

[PlatinumDevil]

you auto haters just dont know how to make the auto play. If the stang was your only toy then yes it better be a stick but if you have a superbike then why bother shifting gears. Although i wont lie i still drop it into neutral at every light, put it in 1st and then shift to second and d. But thats just to hear the exhaust.

Should I keep going?

all those threads and only 1 is a factory failure.

 

[Kilgore Trout]

I don't see the point of the thread.

There wasn't one really, I just made it for some laughs because I knew it would be a fairly interesting thread

Maybe a better thread title should have been: All > TR3650
