trans problems

This is like the 6th transission this car has gone threw . I had a motor swap from a 96 lt1 vette motor to my 94 z28 . My transmissions will run fine for a while and then start slipping or loseing gears in it . What might this be caused by . It really makes me wonder because I am tired of spending money on the damn car . And with the trans like that . Any comments shall help i would apprecaite it

Re: trans problems

OK so for starters you swapped in for all practical purposes the same motor. Which computer did you use and which tranny. 94 was not PWM 96 was that is a serious conflict that would need addressing, can be made to work but needs attention to do so.
Also relatively few shops are competent as far as building this tranny for any performance use.

Re: trans problems

Are you still running the 94 trans with the 94 computer? This is important as stated above.
