Some years back a Cummins field mechanic who drove a F350 7.3 mechanic's truck and never towed anything was complaining that he'd just had to have the trans overhauled. He said the trans shop told him, See'ya in another 60,000 miles. However, nowdays evidently the independent trans shops can beef them up for more reilability. Banks and ATS both sell a trans shift kit with their turbo kits to compensate for the added HP.
So would you say that with the shift kit it would be fine?
