Re: Project Blue
Ok Blue is back in the workshop about to receive the new Valve Body and hopefully second gear.
Here is the Broader Performance VB. Hopefully $295 well spent..

Re: Project Blue
Sorted! The Valve Body is Excellent. We have all 4 gears and chirps in 2nd and 3rd! Will have to watch the 3rd change at WOT as it's a weak point with the AOD. But hey i'm not into shredding tyres. Changes are crisp but not harsh. Still the same clunky coming out of OD but I'm happy with that.. New engine is also excellent. Will post a vid when I get the chance..

Re: Project Blue
Good news mate.
Re: Project Blue
So you're saying I should have bought it
Re: Project Blue
Yeah nice job on the valve body. That was a great buy.
Re: Project Blue
He had it listed for ages too, but I was worried it was too aggressive.
Re: Project Blue
Glad you didn't buy it Dwayne.

Hybrid put a mystery shift kitted VB in his old box for me, so will see how that goes and upgrade to a Silverfox if required.

Re: Project Blue
It should be fine for up to 450HP at the engine. But it's easy to put a hardened inner shaft in it so you wouldn't have to worry.Nuts wrote:Will have to watch the 3rd change at WOT as it's a weak point with the AOD. But hey i'm not into shredding tyres.
Re: Project Blue
So I am guessing you tested 2-3 WOT change on a track
My B&M AOD chirps 1-2 but I am in too built up and patrolled an area for 2-3 test.

Re: Project Blue
If you're chirping 2-3, you probably need better tyres or the shifts are way too hard.

It's a Stage 2 of this VB:

Re: Project Blue
Not recommended for lockup converters. Yeah obviously those shifts are very hard.
If you like your inner input shaft, you probably want a 300M version.

Yes Hybrid, I have upgraded the shaft. Yeah was surprised about the chirp into 3rd. Probably cold tyres. Was like 6 degrees..

Re: Project Blue
You should be fine then. There's nothing else that should break too easily without heaps of power.
The outer shaft can break, but it takes a bit and it's also not locked solid like the inner shaft is, so there is some give in the converter for it.
