What happens if you upgrade the engine without upgrading the transmission?
—Upgrading the engine without upgrading the transmission can lead to slipping and other issues. The transmission may not be able to handle the increased power, resulting in decreased performance and potential damage.
Why is a Billet flex plate and torque converter important?
—A Billet flex plate and torque converter are essential for handling high horsepower. They are stronger and more durable than the stock components, ensuring that the transmission can transfer power efficiently without slipping or breaking.
What components should be replaced during a transmission rebuild?
—During a transmission rebuild, it is important to replace critical components such as seals, clutches, and bearings. This ensures optimal performance and durability of the rebuilt transmission.
Why is the input shaft replaced with a Billet shaft?
—The input shaft is replaced with a Billet shaft to increase strength and torque capacity. The Billet shaft can handle higher power levels without bending or breaking, ensuring reliable performance under high load.
What steps should be followed during a transmission rebuild?
—During a transmission rebuild, it is important to follow proper assembly procedures, ensuring all components are correctly installed and lubricated. Thoroughly cleaning and inspecting all parts before reassembly is also crucial for optimal performance and longevity.
