    Did I blow it up?

    Hey guys, brand new member. Need help, just put an ATS stage 3 tranny in last month. I was going down the road at 60 mph, had to get into the left lane. Gave it a little throttle, when it down shifted, black and white smoke started coming out the back of the truck. I was almost home, drove...
