Engine Builders talk.
That truck is no heavier than mine so I wouldn't be worried about weight. In real comparison the 351 Windsor/Cleveland, 351m/400m, and even 390 were all dogs. Especially in pickup applications. My motor is still extremely strong for having over 160,000 on so I would feel bad destroying it with boost. I've been keeping an eye out for a cheap oldie to put it in, if anything kind of a gift/project for my dad
Yes, I mean monster in a box pre-built. I had one of their trans in my old Mach1 and it never gave me any issues.
The 4r100 looks like a pain in the *** when ours will more than suffice with where we're headed
Would be, but the durability and the coolness factor are off the charts. LOL. But yeah, a mild built 4r70w will be all I need in my build. I'm curious to see how the stocker with 187k holds up to the abuse of boost & large tires just with the cooler you sold me.
I think it was Factory Tech who first offered them. Monster has really grown since then. They have kits for the 4r70w as well. They probably have for awhile, I was just recalling when they first came out..Damn pricy, even back then .
Correct. Factory Tech first offered upgrades for the E4OD/4R100. I went Suncoast because a known builder is local. If I had the option I wish I had a 4R70. Just for the snappier converter ratio even tho the gear ratio's are very similar.
