[Renegade]

hey everyone my dad and i will be swapping out the trans on the Mach 1 tomorrow, anyone want to come and help? it will also be a good time to drop off your guys' parts for the swap meet. we will be starting as soon as my dad gets home around 11 of 12

 

[Ichiduo]

i'll see what i can do...

 

[zimmerc]

I might can. Also my tires i wanted to try and sale are on base and i have no way of getting them without a truck

 

[tomcatdr]

can't make it still on that 12 on 12 off schedule.

 

[Feared]

are you going to no dues if you finish?

GL, need to do my brakes today, or else ill never get them done.

ok so the trans went smoothly except for finding some damage under my car.... thanks Charlie for coming over and helping, we all appreciate you always lending a hand. so the trans works great and is a hell of a lot tighter than the old 3650 (thanks Scott) and it actually knocked out another mod for me, i no longer have to gear my car since this trans has lower gears for some reason, before i could cruise in 5th doing 70mph at 2,000 RPM, now in 5th when im cruising at 60MPH im at 2,100 RPM so its a pretty big difference, anyone running a 3650 with 3.73's or 4.10's that can give me a comparison?

glad you got the job done

at 70 mph I'm at around 2800-3000 rpm. I have 4.30's

So that's probably like me running 4.10's with the stock 3650

over drive has nothing to do with running 4:10's it has to do with the rate of acceleration.. just because your running a higher RPM in over drive, doesn't mean you don't need 4:10's... sounds like you went for a .62 to a .68 OVER drive... you probably have the 3.27 first gear but not the 3.38 that the mach had. every other gear is the same, 4:10s would help... your over drive will just suck now2

I think it's a GT trans. It's geared to help the shorter rpm range and they have 3.27:1 final drive gears.

you still need 4:10's

3rd and 4th feel shorter in it also

yeah, well my mach feels fast... but it's best not to go with the butt dyno... :rofl:

shane the facts are right in front of you... your over drive is the only gear that can be different.... the tr 3650 was only made for 4 years because it was crap!
