C10 Transmission Rebuild

Recommended Posts

Looking to get the auto rebuilt I bought it as "need rebuild" but I installed it as is and managed to get 4000km before it starting to whine a little, more in 1st gear.

I was looking at  the TCI transmissiona (not sure what they're like) and sell mine or would it be cheaper to have mine rebuilt by a local transmission builder?

Stay well away from TCI , They are junk . I've had to repair 4 TCI C6's that guys here have bought. 

Better to have yours built , then you know what you have 

 

Their valvebodies are rubbish, many have a 2-3 flare as a standard feature :(

I have a 1975 date coded C10 transmission and factory torque converter, which was purchased as a good runner -

I bought it 12mths ago for my V8 XF SVO ute project, but have decided to go a different route, so was going to sell it.

 

It cost me $1,100.

If you're interested, let me know.

Wow was surprised about that, thought they were a good brand. Also looked at Performance Automatics but they're too expensive.

About all TCI make that'll work is aluminium pans . Rest is rubbish.   P.A components are good , their builds better than TCI but still leave a lot to be desired compared to the cost.

 

A real good one from P.A I've seen inside 2 now . Their Prostreet 750 HP is nothing more than a Transgo shift improver kit in the valvebody . Yes , correct , basic shift improver not even a stage 2 or equivalent kit. Couple extra frictions , a planet and servo. 

The first I saw I thought was a joke or someone had been in there previous , but no the 2nd was same

Definitely no worth the money you pay.
