Going to change out the solenoid in the transmission to see if the P0740 goes away.
You know that's part of the Stage III valve body. I did forget to ask Denny about the warranty on the complete trans rebuild and performance mods that he does.
Image
I'll call him on Monday on this subject.

No warranty. He helps a lot on the phone though. He will tell you to test and replace a couple of things.

I just received my Sonnex line pressure booster. I've already installed it. I still need to disconnect the torque management wire to see if it helps with the slipping clutches.
I did a test today to see if the Sonnex line pressure booster would make a difference. Normal driving around town. There was no change in shifting or driving feel. Did a dead stop mash the gas to the floor take off. The clutches are still slipping and chattering in third gear, but not as bad as they have been. There is a noticeable better pull under boost. It does make a little difference. This makes me wonder if mod could have saved my trans in the first place?

Probably not...I would have just added more boost and still had the same problem with the trans.

The trans has not thrown a code yet? Under boost,(4 psi) the trans is still chattering a little. And has a slipping feel when the chattering starts. When I talked to Denny. He said, the stock torque converter can act that way too.
Image
This problem didn't start until the May Funday Sunday. I installed the Caltracs, set the boost to 10 psi with water/meth. Added more WOT fuel with the Diablo tunner. Also added Nitro additive to the water/meth that can add 35 hp. Put the stock 20"s wheels on. And remove the tailgate, spare tire, tire jack, and rear seat. That was also the same weekend I tor-up the posi in the rear axle.
Image
I think I might have over did it.

Called Denny yesterday. He still hasn't built the trans yet.
Image
He ordered the Edge converter just the other day.
Image
He said it's been very busy in the shop. He also said, it should be done and ready to ship out by next week..... I've been working some steady hours so far. I don't think I'll be able to get the trans and TC in before the Big Daddy show. So, we'll bring the truck as is.
Image
Next week, I'll start calling Denny every other day for a status update.
