R154 tranny how strong?

[NashMan]

well i know that the tranny will do 600 turq but can i take like lest say 800

from what i know of as well is there are no aftermarket gear sets for the r154 is this ture ???? and if so how makes em and will the box it's self take it as in not walk apart under stress

reson being is my niabor wants a tranny that can take about 800 turq he has tiwn turbo 350 chev

 

[NashMan]

make it simple

how much truq can r154 take stock sean 650.
is there after maket gear sets for the r154.
is the casing going to take the power and not walk to death.

my friend wants to know cause he is thinking on useing one behind a tt 350

I have never heard of a R154 having problems due to power levels - only sudden applications of high/jerking power like drag race launches.

Good god man, spell check!!!

Nash, Maybe contact Marlin Crawler. They are the best people to go at Toyota transmissions like, ever. They are based in California, But i'm Sure you can get some beefy gears for an R series to work with an R154

I've heard reports that Will Neely could peel the teeth off the stock gears at will, with just under 750 trq.

Someone from Aussie land - IJ, I think, once reported on a company doing straight cut or dog toothed gears, not sure which, it's been a long time.

maybe somebody could test an old junk one with 5th gear still usable? Just fix a long lever to the input shaft, weld the output to something to make it solid, mount the front, put it in fifth and see how much torque it takes to break it? Then look at where it breaks. Calculating torque isnt that hard.

dog thoot are used for weak cased tranny like subrues and such

butt hat be piss off to shift and the noise whould drive me nuts

Translation:

Dog tooth are used for weak cased trannies like Subarus and such -

I dont understand this sentece could you rephrase please?

 

[MassSupra89]

It would be difficult to shift, and the noise of dog tooth gears would drive me nuts?

If he's seriously looking for a tough tranny to bolt up to a chev engine, why not use the TH350 or TH400? That's what they are made for...

 

[Evilempire1.3JZ-GTE]

Yea i was thinking same thing he is using 350 why the hell didnt he use the T56 or ZF6 richmond plenty of chevy bolt pattern trannys to pick from use one of them well use the strongest one or one with warrenty

 

[Doward]

If he wants a tranny that will take a 800 tq beating and live, tell him to look into a T56 if he wants a manual.

Otherwise, Lenco or Jericho

 

[NashMan]

well reson being is there exp and he likes to make odd ball cars/trucks this chevy motor is in a ford truck he wants to throw some import in it now

lol all so likes the r154 gear ratio

so i did some digging on gear set for the r154 they don't make any only for the R151F witch diffent tranny the heavy duty bareing will not work eather

so there's that answer taken car of

so does any one know it's limts befor case warps or gear just eat them selfs

 

[Doward]

I think the thrust washer is the main problem... the teeth/gears look pretty damn beefy to me, compared to this damn T5 GM I have sitting here. It's going to be the initial shock (launch) from a TT SBC that kills the transmission. Unless he wants to go through tranny after tranny, I'd look into a T56 or a V160, if he wants to stay away from aftermarket.

 

[NashMan]

well i have bena looking in this even more but this time on the 4x4 side of the inter net

and aprently a good powered v8 are shering gears in the 4x4 world in the r151 tran's and there gears are made the same way as the r154

i going to call marlin crawler to comferm thou


this choudl be true cause 4x4 really beat on the drive train like alot of stress and rotaing mass
