MT82 to 6R80?

[KidMoney]

The 6R80 is twice as strong as that 4R70W. You'd be crazy to go with anything else. Beefcake is making 1100HP with his, just as one example. And it would be easy for you to do as they come factory in Mustangs just like yours.

I agree . But.... no baody makes a conversion from mt82 to 6r80. It would take twice as much money to convert to a factory auto then a 1500 hp capable 4r70.

You don't need a conversion, which is why nobody makes one. Lol. You need an auto computer and trans, convertor, shifter, cooler, etc. Basically a wrecked car or truck. You need more to convert it to a 4R70W.

But isn't there an advantage to having less gear changes at the 1/4?

 

[Bud]

The super low first gear in the 6r80 allows you to keep mild rear gears (3.15, 3.31, etc) so you get great mileage on the street, but still 60' awesome at the track.

The up side to the 4r70 is the ability for a transbrake. Have seen some people complain about the 4r70's holding up with lots of power and heavy cars though. Lifetime warranty is great, but still sucks if you are pulling your trans and shipping it somewhere a few times a year for the "free" warranty work.

Are you sure that conversion is for a auto to auto not stick to auto?
