questions of using an w58 instead of turbo auto?

demon2supra · 04-04-2008, 01:33 AM

the auto costs 1350 to rebuild so i found it was cheaper to swap

you can get used ones for like 200 bucks in good condition.

that is, unless your making over 300 ish whp/tq, whereas you need a tranny cooler or a built tranny.

wow, so instead of just getting another working auto, you decide to risk putting in a tranny that is likely to fall apart under that torque? well your money
