Message: [QUOTE="strokin'_tatsch, post: 639552, member: 7"] All I can say about the comments on a ZF having a meltdown with 300hp and pulling hard is that hasn't been my experience. I won't lie, the 3rd gear syncro is finally starting to let go @ 377k miles, but last I checked that doesn't stop it from driving and getting the job done. I don't pull more than about 15k, but I've pulled that at WOT quite a few times in a tune that makes 518hp. I'm actually surprised the input shaft and my ring and pinion are still in one piece after that. I'm sure the ZF has the short comings your talking about, but at the end of the day a 700 clutch is less than putting 1500 in a trans that may or may not hold 500hp reliably. I have seen several ZFs with broken input shafts from dropping the clutch on shifts pulling a heavy load with plenty of power, but really not many people are breaking them in the way I remember reading yours failed. I'm not seeing anywhere to get a PCS for that price these days. Everything I've found has been $850-$915. Wish I could pick one up for $580. I don't know what converter you run, but I'm planning to run a PI converter and they're in the $1100-1200 ball park alone. These autos just get expensive, hell you got $4000 in yours and yours seems to be cheaper than most people get away with. [/QUOTE]
