My transmission was just rebuilt, the direct clutches had the dual feed done and now I have a 2-3 flare under heavy throttle that wasn't there before. It's fine under part throttle cruising.
The dual feed was done as follows,
center sealing ring in the direct drum (actually on the drum) removed and left off, removed the 2nd sealing ring on the center support, and then blocked the bolt that goes in the reverse passage. This hole was blocked by using a 9/16 bolt rather than welding up the hole which ran through the original bolt which was 10mm.
Please see diagram
Do you trans experts think that by using a 9/16 bolt I am restricting the fluid passage enough to cause the flare or should look else where. I also installed CK's recalibration kit, should I maybe have drilled out a hole a bit larger due to the dual feed? This was a complete rebuild, it air was air tested and showed no leaks! Is there somewhere else I should look? I plan on getting back at this thing after the weekend as I work the next 3 nights. I had a billet forward drum, and added a billet ring gear this time as well.
