Best rebuilt transmission for racing I ever had

turbomantis87 · 01-05-2009, 02:53 PM

I would like all of you to know that the BEST racing transmission (200R4) I ever had rebuilt for me was done by Dave Husek! He worked on my transmission, and set up the tranny and converter combo very well with the way my motor was built.

At first, with my initial setup, I was running 12's.. But with Dave expertese and guidance, as well as working on my National.. gradually with practice.... my best runs went from 12's... all the way to 10.88 @ 125.8!!!!!!!! ...so far hehehe...

Here is a link to my National so you can see for yourselves!!!

I would like to Thank Dave for his help, and especially his work. After he worked on my transmission, I have NEVER had a problem since!! Honestly!!!

I highly.. HIIIGHLY!! Recommend Dave for his work, and his extensive knowledge in motor and transmission building, as well as racing experience!

x2. What is your combo? What did the 10.88 time slip show for 60' and 1/8 mile?

i have to check my timeslip for the 1/8, however my 60 foot was 1.63

my combination consists of: a stock 109 block bored .40 over, internally balanced, stock crank and rods, diamond forged pistons, blueprinted and balanced timing cover, comp cams hydraulic roller cam 212 int/ 212 exh @ .50 duration... ported and polished stock heads, 65# injectors, 70mm throttle body, 76mm precision turbo running at 24#'s of boost, internal wastegate....

LT-1 mass air sensor, Alcohol injection, precision air-to-air intercooler, 200R4 tranny rebuilt by Dave Husek, Pro torque 9" converter with 3600 stall... stock 3.42 gears, KYB shocks - kirben rear coils, and 275/60/15 BFG drag radials on stock wheels..

i just recently installed airbags in both rear coils and im about to install a red armstrong double pumper (which Dave Husek has advised me to do).

My combo also consists of a TurboTweak chip, a 2.1 scan master, 2 B&M super coolers - one for oil and one for transmission..Pontiac trans am radiator w/ twin spals cooling fans, terry heusten downpipe 3.5" into dual 3" pipes, and into hooker aerochamber mufflers...
