Broken every time I have tried to run. 4 trans broken last year, all on my FIRST pass.
On pump gas I did run a 5.8 60-130 just rolling into 3rd gear from low RPM to keep from spinning or breaking the trans, I really need to start in 2nd gear to do a good pull but thats pretty decent for pump gas.
This is one of my best dynos, 16 psi, still haven't turned up the power since I keep having transmission failures. But I would like to turn it up soon.
