the issue for cam is his core is pretty much worth less. the gears wore into the housing, and there is carnage everywhere. he would need a good core aswell, not just his rebuilt

So $300 core. $700 standard build. $300 for 4-spider, $200 shipping. $1500 done!

you know my craptastic spilner mobile puts down 350 at db right? (i know you have like 1700whp) but i'm just saying it's not stock and i have future plans for it so i want to do the tranny once and not mess with it again. Idk if the standard builds are going to cover that.

It will hold 541 at DB, and 628 at MAP. :)

I don't think you can just slap numbers to these things. There's so much more involved. If you slam through gears hard, dump the clutch without pre-loading the drive train, beat the hell out of it, well then even a shep stage 2million might not last an extremely long time at 300hp.

A 4-spider will definately be a good step at helping it to reliably hold more power though.

To be blunt, if you have to ask mitsustyle you should not be building your own tranny, unless you want a spendy lesson on what not to do.

he dosnt plan on doing the work himself. in all possible cases he will be having someone do the work.

Every thread about building a tranny some one comes in and says don't you will regret, Its an expensive lesson, and Just pay someone to do it. All it takes is a clean area, some research, some tools, and staying focused. I did it and had awesome results. Take your time and have fun with it. Be dumb and rush it and it will be an expensive lesson.

Definitely paying a shop to do the work. I agree with badinblack but between
