direct drum drain holes

what is the deal with direct drum drain holes, what do they do, why do some trannys get drilled and others dont?

cools the clutches and cools the 2nd gear band

should all c6s have the drum drilled or just certain applications? Thanx for the help

depends if you want the trans to last

I purchased a drilled clutch drum from broader performance .It gave me the best 2-3 shift I have had .I had to go through my trans and new clutchs seals etc. were used .The only other thing was this drilled clutch drum .It had a better shift than before ..And they arent expensive either .$80 without shipping .And as Mr.Frank says .Everything runs cooler .Doug

thanx for the help, i have phoned broader a few times but no answer, ive left a message with no return phone call. I will buy a drilled drum from PATC.

I hope you have a little time on your hands. It took PATC 3 weeks to send me a Fairbanks "R" servo that was in stock and thats with "expedited" shipping. I sent 3 separate emails with no response so I called and I was told "I don't know why it hasn't shipped yet but we'll get it out, hopefully tomorrow" two days later I recieved it. Good Luck... Todd

Try jay again. He's been real busy and purchased the remains of Art Carr in Texas (not sure if at was parts or equipment). He's been busy moving all that stuff and getting settled in. I've had a TCI valvebody down there for 3 weeks and he called late friday(5:30 pm,he closes at 12:00 on fridays) and left me a message that it was in need of a lot of work and explained why i was burning up my trans in 4 runs. He's a 1 man shop and his quality is top notch.

I've dealt with Jay a few times always found him very good ..

i talked to Frank already, he is definately a c6 master however i dont want to bother him all the time either. I just need to order all my parts and put this tranny together. I sure do appreciate all the help and good info on this site.
