Message: [QUOTE="6.0bomber, post: 661481, member: 10140"] So, i posted a thread a few weeks back asking what kinda trans i should run, that will hold high horsepower (800+). Im 18 years old, i bust my ass to pay for a diesel truck and everything done to it. I hate driving my beater home from work everyday and seeing my truck sit in the driveway. So, to get it moving i went back and actually THOUGHT about stuff that coulda broke. I was hot lapping it at the drag strip. Made 15 runs on a saturday and the trans said SEE YA on sunday. Im thinking i got negative pressure in my trans pan because it blew my dipstick out and fluid hosed down the inside of my engine bay. Could it be the Torque converter? Another thought i had was the input shaft seal let go because there was fluid everywhere, however i can't find a hole in the case (granted i haunt pulled the trans yet) but the bottom of the case looks fine. I know stock Tq converters in the 5r's don't like brake boosting and i was launching from 15-20lbs of boost in 4 high all day long. I have NO gears at all. The other thing, it didn't make any noise when it broke. I was going probably 60 down the highway, all of a sudden it felt like i was pressing on the brake slowly but my foot was still in the accelerator and then all of a sudden nothing. Didn't hear ANY noises, didn't even have the radio on. Thoughts? [/QUOTE]
