Damn this is going to cost alot.




Everyone seems to love his transmissions, but yeah it can cost a bundle! You can pick up a low mileage 3L for $500! But it costs $2000 for the trans you already have to be upgraded! That is obviously because the parts for it are so expensive. Terry's labor charge doesn't seem to bad, especially since he knows these trans better than almost anyone else!






Less than $2k for a TH-built tranny is a steal. You can pay that and more for a "stock" unit that will have the same weaknesses as the one you're replacing.




I agree that under $2k is a steal.... I was just saying that anything transmission is usually expensive. I lightly used stock trans can run you around what TH's built trans cost... so yes it is a great deal... but also ... a lightly used 3L is around $500 for the whole engine!




Yes, but I think a properly built 3.0 will run you much higher. $500 will get you an unprepped, used long block with stock internals.

Still, I think you have a good point. We'd like to put it all in the engine, cause that's the sexy thing, but the tranny has to be able to take it. We want to make our house bigger, but before we do, we have to beef up the foundation.






500$ gets you the motor...you'll need another 500 just to get it running untuned. My 3L with tuning is like 1600.




I know that Pete! My point must have not come across clear!




Oh, GO FOR IT!




Woooo Wooooo longest quote post ever

I'm thinkin' his trans is a helluva deal.When the dealership rebuilt my trans it was like $1900.Luckily I had warranty so it only cost $100.





Corrected... now this is the longest quote post ever!
