I do............so let the shit show begin.........those chargers come up fast and from what Reece told me it runs.
Same basic setup as Jay from NH run's for tuning and Josh from NC as well as many others I tuned.

Well it seemed to really slip at this shift so I let out of it. Checked my fluid and changed my spin on. Then went to make another pass and while I was spooling at the line as soon as the chargers started to light it just free revved. CEL came on p1721, cleared the code and backed out off the track
Tony does. Incredible tuning! Truck is fast as all get out and spools like a dream. Shifts are smooth and no tie ups. Not in the tuning.....
So change the rotating assembly to a 6 speed and that will cure all these issues? And check my pressures?

this was a question (as its not stated in the OP's sig) which was why i asked.
.115-.125 after they have been run should be right. Between 16 clutches they gain .15-.20 in what I've seen
There's only two things that equate to holding power, 1) pressure 2) surface area of friction material.
To the OP - The reason I asked who's tuning is mainly because bad tuning can cause a variety of problems in a transmision ( see if everyday..Not saying yours is bad Tony, ruled out when i heard you tuned it) which leads the belief of builder error. Sure you didnt knick something going in ? I personally don't think you at the power level of worrying about how to make an allision live because many people beyond what you are pushing are'nt having issues with less product inside

If my memory is correct, there is .135" max travel of the apply piston. I burned mine up for two reasons before the dpc, one was the lathe that was used to cut my top plate wasnt capable of enough rpm to make a factory finish, and also I was doing roling burnouts at 40-120 mph tuning in 2wd....twistwd planetary and also smoked c2. I originally set my c1 to .125" and it didnt over-travel the piston. So I made a nicer top plate with new c1s and set it up again at .125" and it held up great.
would you mind sharing your reasoning Mike? I mean, am I way off base with how I look at it? also, do you use this clearance in all your builds or just standard ones?
Did you just turn your switch up? Did you let it learn the new power! I know they don't like being beat on small tune to big tune without some learning. Just a thought.
Any tuning with substantial power changes need to learn. You can go done on power without the learning process but it's harder to go up without it.
How did I know some Yaywho like yourself would bring nothing meaningful to this thread.
I HAVE an 01 TCM that knows TRACK only that says RACE on it. I SWAP it out for the big tunes at the track. All it knows is wide open.
Exactly, your comment has not a dam thing to do with what the OP is trying to find out, my first comment did!!! How did the OP know some Yahoo like yourself swaps TCM's at the track! Maybe in your case it doesn't need relearning, just ask your tuner he will tell you it does!!! like i said before, im just a Dummy!!!
