    Hey Red! Got Super Truck back today after major surgery.They took all my shift kit parts out...even my servo! Oh well it only cost me about 300.00 bucks for a rebuilt tranny and new cats.Kinda nice having soft shifts again....but not for long.I gotta list of parts they replaced that almost fills one page

    Yeah, first parts back on the trans would be the Corvette or billet servos and a transgo shift improver kit. I doubt they rebuilt yours, they most likely just put in a rebuilt core. There is a VIN number stamped under the tail housing of the transmission. I bet it no longer matches your truck's VIN. Better write it down somewhere so that if it ever gets swiped you will have the ID number.

    Yup,It kinda eases into a second gear,slow tire spin.Kinda scared to get it hittin real hard again.I think 4.10s will take some stress off the drive line

    Damn, did they reprogram your PCM? I thought you had the TQ mgmt removed?

    Allen has it soft shifting because of the shift kit.My wife always grabs her neck and gives me that look...QUIT IT! Gotta love it. The reprogram issue is being checked out first thing friday morning on the way to work...Damn! Monday morning it took a shit on 199 and thursday night I drive it home.I dont see a dealer rebuilding a tranny in house with parts ordered, twice and replacing the cats,o2 sensors and other stuff they did in a little under 2 days.I think I will check my numbers and see if I got the swap.The truck feels completely differant,stall seems higher and putting more power to the ground than before.Probably the new cats.Me and Allen have been tweakin this Bitch for a few months now, and shit..the more he gave it ,the less it would respond. cat on pass side was melted and broken in smaller parts plugging the pipe and the fuses where blown on the o2 heaters.Never gave a code or light that I am aware of

    Yeah, I've been thinking about making myself a pair of 02 test pipes. I haven't dropped the pipes down since they went in. With my luck they are melted or plugged too since I drove it for quite a while with a bad/slow/dead 02 sensor. Maybe that is why it is down on power.
