Allison upgrade question?

[Vmyrhaug]

Truck is 2003 year silverado with allison and lb7.
have notice rough between 3-4 and slipping under heavy load.
and the converter have too high stall speed.
trans is orgin. low milage.
engine is tuned.

I'm going to doo the trans overhaul myself. have done a couple of 4l80e in the past and some bigger trans in cat equipment.

i've have a transgo shift kit, but som question about what will be the best parts too put in?

1. converter, i've looked att the BD low stall triple disk. is that a good one?
is there anything better out there with more torque transfer att low rpm?

2 clutch packs, i've been looking at PPe stage 4 and 5. or is there some better solution out there? tharget is 550whp and so much tourqe as possible without changing bigger thing on the engine.

3. Mike L spring. i want the line sping and also the trim springs. but cannot find anybody who can ship it too norway! some help here have been greatful.

4. is there any else i should do with my trans? i want a bulletproof trans for daily driving, towing and a little drag race


If i've lived in usa, i've run the truck too mike l, but it's a freeking long way from norway too usa!
and the trans builder in this country ain't good enough:-( they all about earning money.....

so help with the best product for my truck will be greatful

sorry for my bad english, hope u guys undersand me

Mike spring kit is a must. Suncoast can sell you upgraded internals. Call Mike L.:thumb:

Give Evan @ Limitless (a vendor here) a PM. He can set you up with everything you need and he doesnt seem to have any issues with shipping items.

I personally wouldn't run ppe 4. They run 8 C2 clutches wich will be super annoying. The stage 5 are great clutches for your power level. But I'd add on some C3 clutch coolers. Check out DHD not sure if they can ship to you though.

This is exactly right. A good vendor doesnt try to sell you something you do not need, but helps you with parts when they see you WILL need them. Its crucial to know what your end goals and truck uses are before you call/email/PM a vendor, too.

Nope, didnt. It wont be cheap no matter who he buys from, though.

Cheaper would be all at once... Sounds like that's not really an option for you though

i've had att least buy the TC by itselves...
not cheap thoose things.

and thats why im looking too buy the right one.

the same with upgraded clutch's. the rigth/best one for my use.

ain't cheap too make te engine perform either... it will be spending alot of cash on the truck in the future

 

[malibu795]

Yeah tripple disc aren't cheap

Don't deal with wannabe vendors.

Don't deal with wannabe vendors.

I see that
Its a reason why i'm asking here

I will just say hi and some day i would love to see Norway. as anything I have to say has already been covered.
I was born and raised here in the USA but my last name is Ensrud.

Anybody who would recommend a converter? Looking for low stall speed and huge torque transfer at low rpm. Stock turbo. Engine will be tuned with efi live.
