Re: What did you do to your SyTy today? (part 2)

is it bad when you can run from 65mph to 95mph while not moving from 4500rpm?!?!! get that converter looked at and it will be much nicer! his numbers were on a Mustang 550A AWD dyno...similar to the one I was looking to buy a year ago.

Talked to shop today. $200 to R&R torque converter. Talked to Precision, and $250 to rebuild TC. Thanks for your help, you went way out of your way. New/rebuild TC should be in week after next. Again, thanks for your help, and look foward to further tuning.

Just a plug for the guys at SS Performance Group here in Tallahssee. I could not believe there was an AWD chassis dyno so close to me. Nice guys also.

Changed the weights and springs in the governor. I used a combo that I found on a old thread. I will probably have to tweek it some tomorrow. It should be nice to get the trans shifting at the RPM my build needs.

Honestly it looks really dark in the pic but its not bad at all outside. On my other vehicles ive had 5% and 35% on the windshield and that sucked. But at night its not bad. On cloudy days its so comfortable inside and you don't get the feeling that everyone is staring at you!!

Replaced the damn purple wire. 6 ft back to the location above the brake booster. Someone need punching over that.

Wired in 3 new gauges: trans temp, boost/vac, and fuel pressure.

Added in a remote filter for the transmission. Shit does get really hot. 140* sound right?

Added in a remote cooler behind the grill.... not sure how many BTUs.

Moved the overflow bottle to the driver side. Ran out of clear tubing from the kit.

Adjusted the wastegate to 1/2 rod.

More to do this week.... new toys coming in.

-P

Had TC pulled from truck. Happily verified that it is a Precision 9.5 inch multi disc Vigilante. It is on it's way to TN for rebuild.
