My auto has been slowly dying since i fitted the modded valve body. It has a 2400 stall but last week reverse is like it has a 4200 stall. It is starting to slip through the gears under heavy load which is most of the time i drive it.
Anyone want to guess how long it's going to last? I dont care if i kill it as there is a new 1one waiting to be fitted.

Passenger seat for the next donut session lol........ Couldn't tell you whats been done to the valve body as i got it from a mate. Im not changing to a manual, i'd be forever putting clutches and diffs in. Those of you that know how i drive it would understand!
