That would be good to know what is done to keep them from overheating. Mshaw 230, are you experiencing any trans heating problems so far? Do you have a trans temp gauge? Because he is running a looser converter I would think the trans would run hotter. Does anyone here know if someone makes a gearset for a th 350 where both first and second gears are lower? Like 3.06- 1.75-1 or something simular? Jay
A non-lockup looser converter and numerically low e.g. 3.0:1 diff gears are a problem waiting to happen. The converter will be in slip - which generates heat.
Best solution - ditch the non-lockup converter.
