There are so many low life scum bags out there now thats it's incrediable difficult to find someone to do good work. Thats probably the things that gets me going more then anything is people how screw others over/stealing. Which in some cases if you're screwing someone over you basically are stealing.

on this forum? no. Show me a dakota that has over 400 horsepower to the wheels on this forum... I dare you. User had the best truck on this forum but it burned to the ground. There may be some rams on here that are putting out alot of power and either have, or could use a 3,000$ transmission... But I stay out of their section so I dont know.

Blown287 needs to get some dyno runs in with all his new mods but if he's not up there I'll eat my hat. I actually just sent him a link to this thread as he had mentioned looking at an APS Precision converter.

Wow, I'm glad Rich sent me this. I was looking into getting an APS with my tax return, I guess its back to the edge converter, lol. My plan to beef up the drive train is

1. Stall Converter
2. Sharadon Stage-3 Tranny Valve body
3. Limited Slip

Give me me about a month and I'll be back on the dyno if nothing goes wrong. I should be right at 400 RWHP, maybe a little more with the 3.25" pulley.

Best 2nd gen. Blown287 is a ****ing beast.

We actually got to meet face to face before my truck blew up lol. His could whistle... wish mine did...

but it will this time...



as for APS never delt with the guy, although the only thing i ever bought from him was his Baffles for the Mopar Valve covers... they work great! So for me thats a + as for tranny work ill stick to the people who biult my last one, or talk to Martin Saine he is the tranny expert when it comes to our trucks.
