Thread: New VE-T blogger, dyno low boost 6-10-10.

Ok wish me luck. Today I drive her to work. Pretty quick turnaround on this rebuild lol. Hope it goes well.

^You wrench quick. I wish I had free time to wrench like that.

Yeah, I had the day off work. So after taking my wife to the dentist and running errands, I was all over it. Picked up the new trans and got crackin'.

hope this one holds up better. I would like to see some numbers after the motor rebuild.

I am not trying to be an rude here, but can anyone give me a price rundown for this swap, up and running inclusive of parts list (it is seemingly much more headache than people are letting on)??

I am getting conflicting reports...........

And Coheed, it looks like your pretty set on your 6 speed swap??

when mine takes a crap I will be duing one to ...

- Looks like I should think about getting a 6 speed tranny as well. What would the rpm's be at in 6th gear on the interstate doing 70-80mph?

depends on what year trans you get. Its seeming like if you got the 04+ model you would be under 2k rpms at 80mph or right at it. Which is a hell of a lot better than 3750 that i was at with a 99 p11 gearstack in my b13 lsd trans.

If you get the earlier trans you would probably be around 2500-2700 rpms at 80mph on the freeway.

the 04 + trans is basicly like having the same gearing as a p11 trans with an addition of a 6th gear. Almost all the mph's come out very very close to each other in comparison. Which like i said is nice for me cuz in the 1/4 i can still cross in 4th gear up to 150mph at 8500 rpms or so and not have to worry about short gearing in 1st and 2nd.

Again i cant see any downfall to this swap. As much money as people spend on P11 trannies and still breaking them you might as well save the $1700 or so it would take including the price of the kit, trans, hubs, shifter assembly, axles, clutch, and flywheel. Someone worked it out to those numbers and its pretty accurate for the price the 6 speed trannies go for and the cost of other parts.

I wish i would of tried the 6 speed myself, but felt it was too much work at the time. So i got the last new P11 that was in stock from Gregv

^Not a bad price. I will invest in this kit. It would be nice to say I have a 6 speed as well.
