What's the deal with the 915 transmissions? My 901 in with my 3.2 is screwed up, and I could get it repaired. Or, I could just upgrade and save myself some more headaches in the future.
What's a good price for a 915? Do I need to change anything to mate it to my 3.2? What years for the 915? Anything special I need to know? Yes, I did a search, but I couldn't find much. Thank you in advance guys! |

See, that's what I was thinking. The 901 seems to be better suited to the 4 cylinder task. We can use them with our V8's but the RPM's are up there on the freeway. When I was coming from Mike Ginters house heading for Vegas for the WCC "05" I ran the Alien up over 100 on a long section of open highway. I probably held it there for 30 miles before I backed down. I don't have a tach but based on my years of Big Block Chevy's I'd say I was twisting 5000 to 5500 RPM's. Based on the cost to go through my sick 901, I think I could change to the 915, fab some new linkage and be in better shape over the long haul. |
