Question for Kenny-Bell People

[mrvax]

I was wondering how your transmissions are holding up with all that HP and TK? Any problems? If you wouldn't mind to post the KB system you have and your transmission type. Curious as to what these trannys can handle.

 

[Screwed2V]

Bone stock T3650 with a SPEC 3 clutch. Has taken at least 400 rwtq and as much as 630 rwtq for 12k miles and withstood 1.50 60' times and is running strong. Nitrous, 4 different centrifugals, and a KB with nitrous. I'm extremely lucky and riding on thin ice.

i am running on a stock T45 with stock clutch. so far so good.

 

[el_kid_1]

Stock tranny...no problems thus far!

 

[mrvax]

Anyone else?

 

[MT1083]

Stock T-45 with mods listed in sig. I've got around 400rwhp and 415rwtq. 3k miles with no problems although I don't beat on it. Brightblue00GT is swapping his now after I think 12k or 15k. Maybe you can get him to post.

Are you gettin a KB mrvax?

Are you gettin a KB mrvax?

Maybe someday but in the near future. (I'd need an engine rebuild c/r 10.5:1)

I really just wanted to know if our stock trannys could take the torque from a KB.

My tranny is holding up fine so far.
If you rebuild and go with a 10.5:1 cr and plan on running a KB I would think twice. It likes lower cr's. 8:1 to 8.5:1 would be more like it.

running mine for 7K and still on the stock clutch.

No, I have 10.5:1 already because of the headswap. I'd have to bring the compression down.

My cr is close to 10.5:1. KB had to back down the timing some because of it. So it is still doable but not so much at high boost levels
