Automatic Transmission Fluid Recomendation

why I have a South Bend Clutch in my truck...

Just put my Fass11 on yesterday and was out for a test ride today. Had the Cup race on the XM and Rusty Wallace is leading.



This guy in a Ford pulls up beside me at the double turn lane and his kids are hopping up and down Oo. in the backseat, pointing at my truck. (My truck looks pretty stock but with a name like RTillery on the plates, I gotta have a few bullet holes in the door. ) The light turns green and this guy jumps around the corner in front of me on the outside. I can see the aftermarket exhaust and three gauge pod on the pillar. Typical Ford is smoking as he takes off. He's gotta have a chip in it. I catch him easily cause I am on the inside but he starts crowding over into my lane. He has both left tires a foot over the white-line on my side and I have a curb on my left so I am running out of room. He is creeping on over and about to get my right front. I am sure he is telling his kids how great that Ford is compared to my Dodge and lost track of where he was in all of his euphoria. I have to get out of it, or give him the horns. I give him a toot and he gets back over in his lane. I'm a little ticked off, and the light turns red in front of us.



He is coming up on the light like he is staging so I figure about 5/4 on the TST(TillerySuperTuner?) ought to be enough and I am pushin buttons. He creeps up on the cross yellow light. It turns green and I am ready. I take off somewhat normally but ready to dump the clutch if necessary. I hear the Stroke winding up, but the torqueshift aint letting him go anywhere! No, the snap ring didn't come flying out. He starts to pull me and I nail it. I get about half a length on him an we are both pulling hard. I made one of the best shifts ever into third and the rear is hopping and grabbing. I jump him by 3/4 length and still pulling. I row down to forth and he is still trying but I am walking slowly ahead. Another light up ahead so we both back down. He won't pull up next to me at the next light but I can see him in my right mirror. His wife is yelling :-{} and shaking her finger at him, his kids are sulking in:{ the back, and he is thinking "Dang, :( I gotta spend some more money on this thing to keep up with those Dodges!" Boy it sure is a nice day. :D :-laf

I saw one of my 6. 0 victims the other day... middle aged gent w/ a nice crew cab short bed w/ an Attitude/Juice setup and exhaust on his truck. we had a run a while back, and his truck runs pretty good, but he still got drug ;)



he had his son with him, so I didn't try to instigate another run... just rolled the throttle to let him hear what a real truck sounds like and gave a wave.



I enjoy racing any diesel powered truck... my loyalty lies w/ the 12v Cummins, but if it's diesel powered, I dig it, and the other guy is getting a smile and a thumbs-up no matter if I win or loose.

A guy that worked with me always knocking our ford 6. 0L crew cab, saying how his chipped up 02 24 v would kick the fords arse all over the place. I drive dodges but his comments got a little old. So I offer to race him with the 6. 0 L stock plain ford - he gets all exited - wants everone to watch. So I drive the ford - put her in tow haul mode- and totally kick his arse - not even close! Everyone rolling on the ground laughing - Talk about humble pie - he never & I mean never nocked the old 6. 0 l plain jane again



Be carefull the 6. 0 L. In tow haul mode - launches like an animal - chipped 6. 0 L - VERY impressive. Still like my dodge more but that 5 spd transmission ford has is awsome - Lemons come in every brand. :)
