350 Transmission shifting strong
I recently replaced the coolant lines for the transmission. Previous owner used the wrong type of line and they started leaking real bad.
I got that fixed. No leaks now and the truck is running real good. (knock,knock). So good that now if I accelerate from a stop and push on it pretty good the tires will chirp going into second and even a light chirp into third. It's shifting real smooth if I pull away normally and even when I push it hard its not a real hard shift. Goes into first nice and easy from park. I'm wondering if this is normal from a 350 SB / 350 turbo combo? Fluid levels look good too.

Re: 350 Transmission shifting strong
Sounds like you might have a shift kit in it.

Re: 350 Transmission shifting strong
Great to hear! Yes, transmission fluid leaks will affect line pressure and reduce transmission longevity.
