Another cool thing i found out is that fuel cars only actually use spark plugs for the first 1.5-2 seconds after that they burn out the elctrodes and diesel, that is also why they use three sets of injectors. One set at the top and bottom of the intake manifold and another set directly in the...

Overall its a good oil, i haven't personally used it a whole lot. However i have 2 good friends, one runs a pro mod viper, one running a top alcohol dragster, and both use it in everything including their race cars. It is a synthetic fluid, which means it will take more abuse than any...

if you use a thicker fluid the shift characteristics will change, and the tolerances inside the trans were not made for that type of fluid. but in the end its more personal preference. P.S. i found for 99% of mobil 1 products..... wal mart has it. They where the only ones who had the mobil 1...

Actually that is really good i've seen it as high as 12000 d/a no joke on a hot day.

Typically when a class runs a pro-tree they allowed to run a transbrake on an auto at least or a quick releasing clutch on a stick shift. like on our dragster we run a glide and a brake and i cut on average .005-.020. the only prob is to run a brake you have to run a manual valvebody and every...

Actually it could go either way. On out test dragster we actually killed 100 rpms on the top end by letting out 1/4 lb of tire pressure (6 psi to 5.75). True the tire is taller but when you run lower tire pressure, you put more load on the engine, thats why they recomend to check your tire...

hp would go up.... and you wouldn't need any water/meth injections. although you wouldn't get the full effect without changing the compression ratio. The main diffrence is CNG has an octane rating of 104, i guess if you have forced induction you could turn up the boost higher.

unfortunatley no you can not bolt the 46re to the V-10. Internally they are the same except for the plantaries and the high gear drum, and pump. the major flaw your going to find is that chrysler stole the 48re off the diesel pickup, and i mean stole. The 48re has its own unique bolt pattern...

The higher hp is mostly due to the lower weight. Like puting on an aluminum flywheel on a stick. nowwhats was 40lbs when we put it in, stock if i remember was almost double that. It also allows the rpms to jump up quicker so that you get to the rpm in which you make max hp faster.

he's right you probabley could do it, but not a great idea. Joe Liberty (libertysgears.com) makes the kit for t56, you can power shift but its only made for upshifts, meaning drag racing.

Is it a QC or RC because the speed sensor in the auto's for the QC is common for going out. they get debris from inside on the ends and cause all sorts of problems. If his rearend was changed it would have to be a lower gear by about 10% like from 4.10 to 4.56s or from 4.56 to 4.88.

A th400 is a three speed (no overdrive), so are you going to street strip this, or mostly strip? If it your still going to street it alot you might want to think about the 48re. If its mostly strip then a three speed would be better because of the lower drag.

There are no track meets but there are the winternationals at pomona. Or my bro-in-law calls them the waternationals, you can watch the fuelers run.

What they did was your basic rebuild. Mostly comparable to a stage/level 1 transmission to most companies, basically a stock transmission that is fresh. I wouldn't necessarily call it minor so much, what you actually got accoding to the law was a "rebuild" which consists of changing all shifting...

its in kinda fancy language really all that is, is the converter and soft parts: clutches, steels gaskets and did a valvebody exchange. they left in all what is considered hard parts, planetary gears, drums, sprags, servos etc.. thats like 30-40% you have listed

There are two problems, first the dealership techs can only order parts from dodge, therefore the parts have to come from the factory, where their supply of parts are being used in new trucks aswell as rebuilds. Second dealerships since they started their Service Replacement Transmission...

Very true, they also add rigidity to the case being a cast pan. Which for chryslers has been a problem ever since the hemi days (they use to twist a tranny case like a pretzel).

See the thing is that the 545RFE behind the hemi is actually a mercedes benz transmssion(in fact it has dual starter bolt patterens for left or right hand drive). It was designed for comfort and a smooth shift. the 48Re is actually a 727 with an o/d on the end of the trans. The 727 is a very...

Sweet, did it come today? Let us know how it runs afterwards. It actually utilizes an Allison 1000 lock up plate w/carbon fiber lining, the same used on brakes for top fuel dragsters.

trust me dont take too much from Lacr's website too much to heart. my favorite was last year when one sign said "NO PETS" and another said "PETS MUST BE ON LEASH"
