stall and mileage

[Bradley G]

Second tank since the trans was done, I filled her as soon as I left justbob&justmels' mini meet last nite.
This tank yeilded 307.5 on 18.00X gallons, 297.6 when the feed me lamp came on. A solid 17 MPG no highway
I still have been having my fun going wot but limiting it to a little less frequently.
I have no doubt I will continue to get improved mileage over the slipping stocker.

That's pretty amazing Brad. I never got a chance to feel it yesterday. :(

It's all in the Tune!

Will the non-believers chime in and call for you to burn at the stake?:confused:

[Bradley G]

I have not re-tuned since the trans upgrade, I would have done this sooner had I known how well mannered & more go go- it would be.

What did you have done to the transmission ?

[Bradley G]

40 K trans cooler , tailshaft forced lube mod, overhaul kit by transtar,Fully custom BOC 3600-3800 stall tripe plate convertor; all parts came from Blue Oval Chips Inc., except parts found worn during rebuild not supplied with overhaulkit.
The trans guy replaced both accumulators & replaced missing springs (Jmodded) W/ Mustang springs , sungear, reienforced the accumulator 1-2 for the seperator plate not to get dented from firm shifts.Some other little parts too.

My TC softened the shifts so no need for springs on mine.

[Bradley G]

That's why my advice to you was to wait till you saw how it felt without springs and the stall.
I'll probably take the soft Mustang springs out on the first pan drop.
Springs are for sissys:lol:

Yep. I LOVE my new tranny setup. Burnouts are so freakin easy now. Got 23 on the highway to Michigan. Around town? Maybe.......2.

Seems the real percieved hit on MPG with high stall is city driving, your comment is testimony.:coolman:
