| brake options for the 80e Hey guys....
Are any of you running the Trinity 4l80e Trans transbrake? They are not a sponsor so I cannot link them, and I'd ask that no one else does either...
Their brake is more affordable than the other unit (nearly half) that I had been looking at and it fits in a stock pan as well....
anyone? |

Yes, it works very well. They were the 'other guys' I was referring to. That thing must be dipped in gold. Quote:

| I think I'm going to get the Rossler. Looks real nice. Hopefully this will help me make some boost off the line. |

| I'll be installing a Trinity Brake in a 4L80 tomorrow. I'll give feedback on the install and quality tomorrow. We'll have to wait on feedback from the customer until after the New Year I believe. |

| Sorry forgot about this post.
Nice brake. Well made. Easy install. I installed it with the Trinity full manual VB kit.
I gave Randy ( I'm horribl with names, so I hope I remember right) some feedback on a couple of improvements he could make (new seperator plate) but it's definitely worth the $.
I'm waiting on feedback from the customer as far as how well it works.
I didn't install the trans in the car. |

I am glad to hear that you are and I look forward to checking out your product. |
