Only thing I have ever broke was I took the splines out of an aluminum planet gear assembly. replaced with steel spline and never had a problem . Of course you need a bilit drum ,A low band apply valve body. As said a sprag. I also run the roller rear drum but I don't think it is a must. 3345 lbs and just over 1000 ft tq Oh ya a good convertor . Good luck

It is possible that the torque he had was higher than that due to the nitrous. 8..603 156 mph best, 2905 lbs 549, indy 572-13, alky

Even with the best of parts, they seem to all need regular maintenance or consistently need to be checked over. Last edited by mopar_mark; 02/16/13 07:52 PM.

Billet drum, 5 pinion steel planetary (front), bolt in sprag (standard # of elements though) LBA MVB etc etc. I was going to add H/D or billet I/p and O/p shafts and hope for the best. I don't mind the maintenance, how often were they pulling it apart Mark? That having been said, I just rebuilt mine after 4 seasons and it didn't really need it. The current motor is not into 4 figures though. Do I need to do more? I'd rather not go to a th400 TIA.
