Re: TH350 Problem
Don't think that the case here. Change tranny out to spare trans with same converter and boom within 1-2 (60 ft) every run. Spare is just not as fast because it does not have alum stuff in it. Spare is an point A to point B trans.

Re: TH350 Problem
Hmmmm, good question. Have not put a gage on "spare" trans because of no problems. All books and literature shows 145-170 is good number.

Re: TH350 Problem
Is your pressure gauge mounted in the car or is it a diagnostic type for stationary pressure diagnosis?

Re: TH350 Problem
Are the high gear clutched showing signs of slippage?

Re: TH350 Problem
Trans guy says no although I'm glad you asked that. Well seasoned Super Stock racer in my area asked the same question. He said "I'll bet it high gear clutches or clearance issue."

Re: TH350 Problem
It should push through if outlet plugged..Doubt it would take any hp but worth looking at I suppose.
