well look at it this way fat ***. It was in gear both times it broke (you said it didint do ANYTHING when you put it in 4th the first time, So it had to break before the shift. and the second one you where completly in gear and doing a pull and it broke. So maybe the shifting has something to do with it. But you are making enough raw power to just strip the teeth, I wouldn't waste 250 dollars on a flow control valve. Thats such a waste, put a tranny in it that can stand to handle the power. Yours going to sell yourself short if you keep wasting money on putting h tranny's in it. And again, Tony's car was about 1000lbs lighter then yours... So thats why he didint have a problem.

Sleddog for 99 cents will do fine, my machinist is only halfway done with the block and from all indications isn't in any hurry.

I figures out a great strengthening process tonight at work using the ROCKFORD scale at work, heat treated T2 steels with KCF coating is a N/G WE ARE BETTER OFF BUYING THE STOCK fork for $50 tops and cutting it short and welding it on the backside of the original fork, and when I mean welded it's going to be tigged and then drilled with 3 rivits in a triangle form, It didnt start to bend intil 4500 psi on the pull tester at work. You understand what I'm talking about? Going to pull the M2B4 gear caseing and remove the reverse fork and try it out after I get another stage 5 and fix the rear main leak, along with a circuitworx upgraded oil pump gear. Anythoughts or pics on how to replace the 5th gear syncro BDVTEC

Again I say, you had to know this was coming. Doesn't matter what other people do especially when they drive cars hundreds of pounds lighter than yours. The people driving those cars probably weigh less than you too.

The direct experience I have with H series transmissions is them shitting the bed at low-medium power levels. Add about 400 more whp and a fat ---- with a heavy foot and a serious clutch, and you've got this thread.

Good luck finding an H series transmission that will hold that power though, I'd like to see what this ---- runs on the track.

Well The original plan to put a semi fucked up gearsetin a semi fucked up tranny was ditched... I found a M2Y4 Tranny locally for 250 bux.. and I agreed to pay another 50 if it was flawless... He said it used to have a bit of a 5th gear grind. I bought it anyways.. When I pulled the axles out of the fucked up tranny, teeth from the fourth gear fell out of the axle seals... LOL... DIdnt open it up, but the fluid thyat came out of it looked like metalic silver paint.... HAHAHA.

Picked the new tranny up (after getting flaked on for a LSD trans iI found locally as well, once dude found out what my screen name was on a local "street racing" forum- ****** never answered his phone; oh woe is me people dont like me... SWEET). Anyways, pulled the fucked up tranny out of the car last night, got the new one in... and filled it with 1.2qts Royal Purple 10-30, and 1 qt Honda MTF....Started her up and the tranny shifts FLAWLESSLY!!! SO happy that I decided NOT to flog it at the races tonight other than on the freeway... Its along the lines of the M2S4 Has a longer fifth gear in it so 78MPH happens at about 4K instead of 44-4500... I like the gears. It pulls good, I think it went through 3-4-5 faster with the other trans, but this one feels SOLID, shifts great... NO GRINDS!

Called Leed, re-tune is postponed for a minute, Im thinking if its making the power it is to break all this ----, that I only want to go up a few more pounds (with 114/92 mix), and call it good. I have yet to be beat, but I think that hatch tonight will give me a good *** race at 17 PSI...

Yes Mrs Micheal.... You ARE still daddys favorite... SOme good runs tonight, and my car is FUN to drive again ( other than that the brakes are squeeling from the indicator... HAHAHA pads tomorrow!!!

damn, after all of these tranny problems have you considerd using a b series tranny?

bigdaddyvtec

Yes its on the radar... I need to research what I need to do.... It wont happen till the end of winter, but Im thinking that it needs to, Just a H2B (or D) plate, some custom axles and a set of twin disks for a b series (and flywheel spacer (along with custom tranny mount for cd 5 yes??


LMK anyone who has an idea... Im hoping i dont need to change my rear and DS mounts.... Any one have an Idea for the CD5??


Thx nigs.

Scott-EP

im sure driverside mount will stay the same, but wouldnt be surprized it the rear and tranny mount have to be custom. if you have mad welding skills i know somewhere to buy poly mount inserts for making custom mounts. i have plans of offering swap mounts and just better stock mounts though my shop in the near future
