Need some advice on how I should Finnish my build

**revin24** · 01-26-2015

I guess I'm on my own then

On your own for what?

When you want to do a trans.. that's reasonable enough to do. I built one, kinda. I say kinda because you want the valve body/channel plate to be done by TEP. The tools to do the upgrades and the extras that are done are beyond worth it. After that.. you only need a couple of specialized tools and even more knowledge from reading til your eyes bleed. It's worthwhile to read everything you can find. Learn the flow, understand how things work and apply etc, that'll set you up to do a much better job and simply following the book. Learn about spacer plate feed holes and clutch stacking/clearnancing. Look up a thread titled something like trans info by me. Some stuff is in there.

Also.. 7000 rpm, cruise over to 3800Pro and read up on oiling deficiencies by Turbocharged400SBC

How long did it take u to build yours. I don't plan on ever running anything other than a school the valves I'm planning on putting in says do not use with turbocharged set ups but other than that I feel like there's a whole lot of loose ends that need to b taken care of like who will program the pcm or who can teach me to do it myself u kno stuff like that

with the aeroforce you don't need gauges for Trans temp and oil pressure not sure till mine shows up but I think aeroforce will read all of those so all you would need is the 3 aeroforce gauges

I don't believe the oil sensor has more than one wire

**selliott** · 01-27-2015

? It has one wire I guess I'm not understanding the question. I just talked to intense yesterday and John told me the I could eliminate my oil gauge by using the aeroforce aux input

**revin24** · 01-27-2015

Yes u can but u still need to put in another sensor

**Scottydoggs** · 01-27-2015

you cant use the stock oil pressure sensor, its a 5 psi warning, and when it warns you its to late already.

**revin24** · 01-28-2015

I bought tinted glowshift gauges although I'm not sure weather or not the glowshift afr gauge will b accurate enough dose anyone happen to know if they are

**revin24** · 01-28-2015

And 5psi is way too late shouldn't it b something like 15-20psi

Well that's nice mine has blinked for the last month until I changed my oil. Put a new sensor in, 4qt of Castrol 10w40 and 1qt of Lucus stop leak. Haven't had the light come back on but the oil plug had a good amount of shavings on it.
