Swap out series 4T65E for 4T65E-HD?

[CyxRyan]

I think some of my shift solenoids are going bad in my trans or my trans is going bad itself. I really like these cars and love the s/c's so I was wondering when my trans goes could I put the HD version in and later on put a s/c on my engine or can I build my stock trans to handle a s/c?

Yes you can top swap these motors for s/c

The differences between an HD and non HD are fairly simple. Bigger diff, different gear ratio (based on the chainset) and a 1/4" longer output shaft. The shaft will never be missed or noticed. The rest though, you'd notice the gearing and you'd need a new passenger axle to (shorter) to accomodate the new diff.

So everything would be find if I swap or could I rebuild my trans to handle a s/c? How much are rebuild kits and do they come with solenoids?

Triple Edge Performance 4T65E Complete Kits

There's a link to triple edge performance rebuild kits. It really depends on what you want to do with the car after you supercharge it.

I would like to shoot for at least 300HP on the car, ive seen a guy who was pushing just over 330hp on his with about 3,000 into his car but I would be happy with 300hp
