yeah. i'm putting screen mesh on tomorrow just to prevent big stuff from getting in. the firewall material already has been almost sucked in lol. i'm ordering a filter that fits there, it's a very tight spot so i need to get a special short filter for it.

It's nice, it's fast, you have money invested in it, it would effing suck to wreck it, if you live around people who are anything like some of the people that live around here you'd have a novel scratched into your doors.

4T40E > 4T45E

It shows no signs of letting up whatsoever. HPTuners reports perfect shift times and response. Line pressure's upped, shift time's reduced. We'll really find out at the track sometime in a few weeks when I put slicks on.. but I'm going to take it easy for a while after I get a decent pass, until I have enough money to replace and build a trans.

Next week I should have an intake manifold almost identical to this:

Same pressure for now... I don't need to break the transmission just yet. 15 is plenty fine. I've got to wait to tune until my 60lb injectors are installed next week.

So I'm curious, doesnt the 99-04 Malibu come with the 4t40e? If so, wouldnt the make a good candidate for a tranny swap on the 3400?

Guess it would depend on what engine it came with, not sure, but I do know my buddy's 13 sec 2000 Malibu had a 3100/4t45e before he swapped in the 3400.

If you're going to do any swap on the 3400, I'd just jump right to a beefier transmission from the factory, and build that if need be. Me, I'm going to pick up a low mileage 4T40E and build that eventually.

We did a 3400 swap into a cavy and kept the 4t40 in it, and it was plenty torquey. I imagine it was the gear ratio based on a 4-banger combined with the displacement

Yep this is my top tier. Sufficient for up to 525HP, good enough for me. 11s is all I seek in the end.

No.. why would I do that? There's always something to do on the car. If not, I just drive it.. I'll have other cars but this one stays forever.
