So it's time to do a rebuild on the old girl. I don't know what's in it for parts right now but I'm not going to take chances and I'm going to be doing a mild/cost effective build to support my mild upgrades to the truck.
What I'm hoping for is for those of you who have experience building a 47re to chime in and hopefully point out something I may miss. I know there is tonnes of info on it, and I have read the threads many many times but I must get overwhelmed easily because that's what happens.
The trucks a 98 with a 47re, has a he351cw, 215 injectors, #8 plate, 024 delivery valves, 4k GSK, rack plug, timing changes regularly as I like to play with it and try and find a sweet spot. Future plans include some 5x14s and an HT3B under the 351 but that's not present and could never happen.
I use the truck as any 22 year old would, I like to show off sometimes(racing/burnouts/etc.) but not all the time. I do consider myself to have a heavy foot. I tow no more that 8k pounds and even thats rare.
So now that you have some background, here's my list so far.
-Pro king delux rebuild kit(was a good deal)
-hopefully I can find the pressure and reaction plates I need to add some clutches.(anyone help with these?)
- transgo tfod hd-2 shift kit
-sonnax accumulator piston
-sonnax 2nd gear super hold servo kit
-billet 3.8 apply lever,band strut,wedge
What would you guys change/what am I missing?
Can anyone help me out with the 48re reaction plate for the od brake clutch pack and a forward drum pressure plate for the direct pack?
Thanks guys
