Tranny ?

Has anybody out there had any experience with TCI transmissions? Are they any good for our cars? They quoted a price of 1269 for their 2004r. They advertise it as being upgraded from stock and comes with a one year limited warranty. What do you guys think??

With the area of h/p your engine is starting to develop, you need to be thinking about as much billet as possible. See how much billet is in the trans. With what I can see in your bio, you would need a minimum of a billet input shaft, fused forward drum and l/r center support, and billet o/d planet. With the need for more if your budget would permit. You need to be looking at longivity with your rebuild so as to avoid future teardowns. Mark

if the tci unit has a heat treated drum it will probably hold up.it doesnt seem that you are making enough power to break their unit.no offense,just my opinion.

TCI

I've been running a TCI 200-4r in my T-Type for 5 years now and it's still taken all the abuse I give it.. Got it at JEGS , you keep your trans and no core charge....plus if you need it rebuilt someday, you just send to TCI and they rebuild it with all the race parts for $250.00 ....... They are tested at the factory after assembly........ It's built with all the "race" parts (clutches, band, shift kit, valves....etc... ) No soft shifting and easy wheel spin

Use the part #381000 (lock up)

Contact Greg (MeanBuicks) that posts on this forum, he works at TCI......

Thanks to all that replied. You guys gave me the info that I neded.
And to Chris718, I take no offense to your horsepower comment, that's exactly the kind of advise that I need. I don't want to spend extra money where I don't need it! Thanks again guys, I'm gonna go with the TCI unit til I can get one built next year.
