I LOVE my Trans, Really! . I had Eric Merchant build mine. He did one hell of a job, he knows what he's doing. Its more than just slapping in Clutches. there are some secret machining tricks that really make the build durable and strong. Im using Erics Spec race converter from Precision Industries. This Verter is one beefy unit and does EVERTHING i ask it to, From Towing to playing its great. I have the same build as NastyGirl ( 1000 rwhp) minus the billet input/output shafts.

Mike L Billet Input Shaft
Mag Hytec pan.
ATS Billet Flex Plate.


shouldnt have to worry about it for awhile. And If youve got an extra grand, while your in there install the co-pilot. But you can do this later all you need to do is drop the valve body.

You dont need the billet shaft or Flexplate unless your going to building your motor for serious( 600 and above hp) from what the pros have told me. Lots of guys running the SC III and a good converter holding 500+ just fine. When i had my trans built i asked about billet shafts and was told unless i wanted power upwards of a 1000 rwhp i didnt need billet shafts for a 500rwhp driver.;)
