well boys, lost my allison tonight on the 1/4 mile. Lost it in 3rd gear, went to limp mode in 3rd. She didnt have enough holding power in 3rd gear limp mode to start rolling from a dead stop. I started to smell burnt clutches at 1/2 track.
looks like i get to join the built trans club.

And since ill have the trans out ill be getting a True down pipe to install know any one with a good price on one GmcLbz?
Maybe..... Let me see what I can come up with. Also the 1056 converter isn't a bad deal either. It works pretty well with a factory turbo.

I think the 1056 is just a hair looser than the 57. or was that a hair tighter... not quite sure but for a daily driver I dont think youd be dissapointed. and a precision industries would also be comparable to a suncoast from what I understand.
