Question transmission help

What transmission cooler are you using in your lt1 383 with 4l60E. I just rebulit my trans about 6 months a go and the fluid is burnt and not shifting right.

Did you do it yourself? can you check your pressures? If a seal is not sealing 100% it will burn up the clutch pack pretty quick. It should show up on a pressure test.

On the seals for the gaskets, there are two tabs that need to be removed. I had an issue that this wasn't done (by a Chevy dealer) and I had leak issues. Make sure you aren't leaking fluid.
