TCC releasing at crusing speeds with light throttle

[joecar]

There should be no metal flakes...

yes you are absolutely correct, if they machined then they should thoroughly clean out any metal flakes/chips before assembling;

the valve body occupies the space inside the pan where the metal flake are sloshing around and can get into the valves in the VB.

Attached New TC and mounted.

Going to clean pan and Add fluids....

Thing was so tight tolorance wise I didnt think i was going to get it in there... Very well made.

How much clearance did you have between TC pads and flexplate before installing spacer washers...?

1/8 " with washer... It was more than that before the washers.

BTW: I see you have remote engine oil filter

Yea that took a bit of work.. I have dual 1 liter filters.

hit the street tonight... the TC feels tight till you lay into it then it flashes up just like its supposed to... It does eat up a little of the 1-2 shifts but thats expected.

What were the pressures the trany should be running?

100~150? I coundt see the gauge all that well because it was dark but looked consitent.

That new TCC has a monsterous engaugment.... Harder than the 3-4 shift.... I like it lol..

The TC is well balanaced and tame until you get to about 1/4 throttle... Itll flash up to 2800~ and burn tires if you let it... them calm down and feel tight at low RPM's really well worth the money.

Any way i can get my 2-3 3-4 shifts to be firmer safely lol....

Thanks for your help and support fellas.

Add Torque reduction, and speed up the shift times.

Also I've found it helps for consistency to make your high octane spark table transposed onto the optimal timing spark table. Makes torque reduction more predictable.

Interesting... good idea, I haven't tried this yet.

New TC is great but im still having issues once everything warms up it starts slipping.... I klnow its not the TC at least i wouldnt think that it was after putting a $1100 TC in it from a reputable source... What could be causing the issue.

I have a pressure gauge hooked up to it so I can read the pressures while its running.
