    Car and Truck 8 speed temperature differances

    I couldn't decide which option I wanted, so that's why i removed the thermostatic spring valve behind the plastic end plug. This is an observation since the removal. The valve controls the flow from both the heater and the cooler. When removed the transmission gets FULL flow heat and FULL flow...

    Car and Truck 8 speed temperature differances

    I removed the thermostat valve, I wanted to see what would happen before I installed the revmax retrofit. I have driven about 100 miles since removed and haven't gotten a CEL yet.

    Back to stock exhaust

    Redline Trans & Diff Fluid?

    I've flushed ws fluid from my Toyota before. That came out really clean looking at 60k miles. When I first drained the 8 speed I wasn't expecting it to be so dark. When I saw it just as dark again, I didn't account for the dye affecting the appearance of the fluid. It did smell like fresh...

    Redline Trans & Diff Fluid?

    Thanks for the advice, I'm doing some research on fitment. I had read a review that the stock y-pipe had to be removed then reinstalled. I was hoping it would clear with stock setup, but I may have a muffler shop readjust that pipe lower. I do plan on getting long tubes,but that's way down...

    Redline Trans & Diff Fluid?

    Yes samples from 8 speed. The fluid doesn't smell burnt but it's too dark for my liking. I really want to change the pan next along with the filter. I'm looking at a PPE aluminum pan with extra capacity and replaceable filter.
