Lol stock motor right now, but over the winter, Im doing as much as I can, after this trans my driveline is bullet proof. I ended up doing the driveline first b/c my driveline broke first lol. First the rear, built the rear up, then the trans blew.....
So now I have the TKO 600 going in soon with a 31 spline/auburn/4.10 rear. Good to have stuff that wont break, now I can drop just about anything I want in the engine bay, its a nice feeling.
Im just following the motto of the 5.0, when things break, upgrade.
Well okay ...
Grenading the stock drivetrain with a stock setup leads me to seriously suspect you are pounding the hell outta that car
Poor dad of yours Buying the 600 will save him money in the long run the way you drive
The factory engineers didn't plan on continues foot romping, sheesh ... the way you scoot, should probably look into getting a gearbox outta an Abrams
if your wondering about the crossmember, the AOD one fits... i have the aod one on my T5Z but its a force fit... the AOD is offset wich is required for the TKO. just a little idea for ya
fox, thanks for the help, I ordered a crossmember though with the tranny as it was only like 30 bucks.
89copcoupe - Yeah I let the car know whos driving it, lol. It took about 2 months of powershifting, then it started whining louder and louder day by day.
