Well i got the built tranny from Tim King and he forgot to inform me that he put a reluctor plate in the tranny for the 3.29 gears. Well with that in there you can leave your 2.93 ratio in the tables. Well me not knowing this i changed it to 3.29 and went out and did some WOT runs for tuning and 1st gear it slipped hardcore. So i talked with Tim and he informed about the reluctor plate and he said with the wrong gear ratio that would make F*ck shit up. Well i think it was to late. After talking to him again he thinks my 1st gear piston is SHIT now. I am so close to having this project done and now i have this come up. Now i have to pull the tranny and ship it back to Tim as he has agreed to help me out with this. It just pisses me off when we get lack of information from the seller! MEGA RANT

Glad he's helping you out, but damn that sucks.

I thought only the drive sprockets were different, the reluctor wheel is the same regardless of 3.29 or 2.93
When I've done gear swaps I literally only change the two drive sprockets to 35\35 (3.29) and reassmble, never changing the reluctor wheel (unless damaged).
