Yes, I am going to use it to stop shocking the driveline with too much power. I think that's what stripped my third gear. Fast shifts and the load is too much for the weak components. The flow valve runs inline with the clutch line. Let's you choose which jet to allow how much fluid is getting by. So the clutch is slipped even though the pedal is out. Tilton is what many use and works just fine. The clutch masters allows you to change the jets out without having to bleed the system.

You just run it inline going to the clutch. No more damage than slipping it with your foot. It just allows the same thing but being consistent or dialing it in with the differant jets.
I figure my luck will be better 60 footers with this and broken axles.
But my biggest reason is trying to help from having tranny breakage.

Mike,
I broke my input shaft again in March with my faceplated trans. I haven't even talked to Paul about the repair. Sounds like they are running behind again at Liberty. I haven't thought about the orifice but that might be something to consider to help my problem.
G/L. I'd like to hear about it once you get some runs under ur belt

Great numbers. Can't wait to see how that bad boy does at the track. I think the tranny set up Roan has is the best and reliable option. The stock fd case will flex and crack so the best gear set will only flex more. The T56 with 1-4 dog ring then 5-6 stock is the best of both worlds, IMO
I used the Gforce g101 but ya gotta cut the **** out of the tunnel.

Thanks man. Well see. The tranny did well For a longtime. I am wondering what the limits are power wise. I keep thinking auto, auto..... But that doesn't sound too fun on the street.

My liberty stock box was 3k when built. That's with a new cluster assembly and moly output shaft. It went over 2 years with no issues. My rebuild ran 1k. If I get another 1-2 years I am ok with that. But I will say I am worried if it will hold the new power. I hope the new valve helps on the shifts. Wonder how much 100rwhp will drop the 1/8th et? Also going to try and pull 100lbs off the car. Goal is 2670 w/ me.

Your 1/8th Mile ET is 6.35
Your 1/8th Mile MPH is 111.66
This is using Wallace racing calculator putting in 600hp and race weight of 2770. Pretty damn close to my best pass of 6.36et and best mph being 111!
If you do the math on that turbo it is good to 600 max. When I would turn the boost up from 30 to 32, 35 it hardly picked up anything. I could believe 615max but not any more.
The dyno we used this last time is known to read a tad low 10-15hp low. If you look at the other cars tuned that weekend there numbers are all on the mark. Nobody made any crazy numbers. So my 700 should be solid and I believe it is.

IMO the internet horse power calculators are based on the VE of the power being constant through out the rpm range for each gear.
On a turbo car that power is not constant in fourth gear. "If" you cant run waste gate spring, you have a manifold problem or to much back pressure. The longer your in fourth gear the more "back pressure" is created and power drops off.
1st through 3rd gear is not as bad because the lenth of time in those is gears is short.
That is why there are cars out there that run great 1/8 runs but cant translate that power to the 1/4 mile.
just my two yen.
