As some of you will already know I have retired the wagon pending if I really want to risk it. Its automatic transmission had blown early January and so I have decided to take it easy so it will last.
This is transmission number 5!! So you can probably see why it wont be seeing any dynos ro wsid again in the forseeable future.I have had alot of fun but as I have posted elsewhere I had to grow up sometime..

it shouldn't be breaking gearbox's that easy.
BTR's can handle more then your putting through it!

ef falcon..what can I say...? Im not boosted but its probably got to do with the shock off the mark which is doing it. At 1.5k a throw it is time to admit that the auto just isnt strong enough for me. I know I know..alot of guys sit there telling me of their force fed sixes lasting forever but this things pulls alot of kays and they are hard kays. ..You play you pay..as they say lol.
Matt I didnt know you sold the beast.. I dont know how you did it? I am not gonna sell this.Its got to get me some bread back before it gets pulled off the road and I do something ridiculous to it like a 460 big block with cams and supercharger...off road of course..hehe

Matt ..just a question.. what power do you estimate the wagon had at the treads to run this pb? I trust your judgement.

I trust your judgement. highly depends on how much torque it was making... could have been around 150rwkw with great torque.. or closer to 160rwkw and not quite as much torque.. so im guessing anywhere say 150-160rwkw.. |
