Going to the track...
- Thread starter Duramax_JP
- Start date
I was probably a little over 8000 then. I got a lot of random shit in my truck. Especially in my toolbox
that makes a little more sense although i would put that thing on a diet for your next trip to the track.just a thought if your looking for ideas on tranny upgrades heres what i did for a tranny upgrade on my LBZ an its working out great for me,TTS tranny kit with a TCS TC but next time i would do the 1056 TC from SunCoast..
get you some old scrap metal and take it to Acme Iron off Houston-Harte, they weigh your truck before and after to figure what to pay you. Old appliances, lawnmowers, or any old crap with metal, just take a truck full and get paid for your trouble

They pay you to take all your crap and drop it off!?
they buy scrap metal, you drive onto the scales and get weighted, they take the metal out of the bed and then you drive back on the scales to get the weight difference. Then they pay you (its not much) but it is a way to get your truck weight.
Hmm well thats pretty cool. I have plenty of scrap metal at my ranch but if they dont pay much then its not worth it. But ill load up my bed with some random crap and go get it weighed. Im curious how much i weigh with everything i have on it.
all our duramax's have built trannys,the dually has a stage 5 SunCoast and the LBZ has that TTS tranny kit with a TCS TC..
Sorry I meant u didn't do the clutch packs or anything ? How much power are yoiu pushing with your lbz
it has stock clutch packs..i have pushed well over 500HP at it..there was a LBZ at the Diesel Power Challenge with the exact same setup as mine that dyno'd like 520RWHP(it mite have been a tad bit more)and i know of mid 11 sec LBZ with the same setup only he has the SunCoast TC..
Did you log any of your runs? What size wheels/tires are you running? What kind of 60' times were you getting? If you can post up your slip or just post what the slip says, that would help too. Where did you go to race?
Surething. Ill post up the slip. Keep in mind this was my first time racing though. It sure as hell isnt anything to brag about. But im running 285/75's. Oh yeah and i didnt log any runs. Dont really know how. Im not very EFI Live savy yet.
So all i really need is a TQ and a shift kit to run the power im running?
Not a good idea, build it right the first time, instead of re-doing it again when you overpower it
The code you threw (P0777) makes me worry about your trans. I threw that code a couple of times before the C1 clutches in my trans completely let go. I would recommend turning the power down before you do some serious damage. On the flip side, it isn't very difficult to work on the Allison. You should be able to rebuild it in a weekend.

x2 been there done that :hello: Pat had to buy me a trans for Christmas after he limped Wendy on the dyno
Ya i guess i might as well build it if the trans is out. If i had the tools id do it myself but i dont know that i wanna spend the money for someone else to do it either. I dont like spending money but i like doing things right the first time so i dont know what ill do.
Ya i know worried me too when i saw the light come on and heard and felt a clunk. I was like well thats my last run till my trans is rebuilt
