6 Speed Auto

Most of the hot Mercs etc. have reverted back to a 5 speed auto as the others could not handle the higher torque levels.

The supercharged V8's and the turbo V12 do use the 5 speed but they make an incredible amount of torque, the V12 over 1000nm.

Exactly.

I guess the choice of the new 6 speed auto tranny will depend on what torque levels you are ultimately after, or how much you want to spend strengthening the unit.

The thing we all must remember is this....

If you can put something together, you can take it appart. You just need the right tools to do it.

Even the best safes in the world can be broken into if you have the right tools. If you know how to manufacture one, you know how to take it appart... There is almost nothing that a diamond silicon carbide drill won't dig through, and almost nothing that you cannot melt if you make it hot enough...

The point is? The new 6speed IS NOT A SAFE. It isn't built to keep people out, in the sense that the sole purpose of the unit is not to protect what's inside...

Therefore, if you have the right tools, you can take it appart and strengthen whatever you want, so long as you have a custom forger and custom machinist nearby...

They said the Black oak ECU was 'virtually un touchable'.

Now we have an Edit that can change entire management programs in under 2 minutes...

This gearbox is in the same boat; it will only take time and investment before someone comes up with a specific method in which to pull these boxes appart and start to customise what is inside....

You'll probably find this gearbox can handle 800+nm, all day every day, if given to the right mechanic to pull appart and modify...

If possible, a longer 1st gear would be handy as well....

Now that this box has made it's way to a Falcon and enthusiasts will want more from it - well it's just about a given that someone will figure out how to mod it to do what they want it to do.
