Why measuring TRANSMISSION pressure is so IMPORTANT! Tech Tip Tuesday

One area completely avoided and looked past by most entry level enthusiasts is transmission pressure. It can make tuning so difficult and can effect the durability of your engine. In this video Doug discusses where to pull readings, what parts to use, and how it can effect your combination.

WOW HOLY CRAP THIS WAS SUPER INSIGHTFUL DUDE, THANK YOU! I DID NOT KNOW THAT ABOUT THE CONVERTER PRESSURE AGAINST THE ENGINE CRANK.

id love to see a Motion Raceworks dumpvalve/Rife Sensor combo kit as that would be super slick.

Will all this help Cooper? He’s such a good guy, and is trying his best. I hope that he recovers from this blow out, soon!

[bobgreene]

Well put together video. No BS straight info.

Thanks for the info guys! I'll look at getting this on to my 4L80e for my 370z LS swap.

Awesome videos speaking of fluids have you done a video on installing transmission and turbo filters.

AUTOMATIC Transmission Factory Line pressure regulator is what I run and it’s working perfectly

Good information! It would be helpful to increase the lighting around the components being filmed under the car. My old eyes don't see as well as they did in my younger years.

Thanks for the knowledge burnt up a couple Transmissions I drive a 1990 GMC Sierra slammed kind of hot rod it maybe this will help keep a transmission little longer I keep swapping back from my Turbo 400 to my 4 L 60

Man you guys are opening my eyes on information but I don’t have a lot of money to spend on parts if I’m not a track guy just a guy who likes to do some burnouts now and then is this really necessary ?

Tons of people with high dollar 76/75 class cars and people with “sloppy mechanics” type builds with T4 78/75 turbos would prob be very interested in your $400 76/75-T4 turbo cam for LS engines. But besides the fact you guys sell it, there is not really much info out there on it. You post the specs, but maybe a video about why it’s “the best T4 turbo cam” or the “best higher back pressure” turbo cam.

Is that the only or best way to plumb it? I have my cooler lines looped so im wondering if it will be optimal like this.

will the brackets be available separately
