The invoice I got from them said Titan, so I'm assuming this is a sister company of Titan????

I haven't seen any issues with it up top. I didn't have it flare a bit on a 1-2 shift when I flat footed it, but that only happened one.

The race-lines kit comes with all the necessary fittings and lines and will save you a lot of time hunting that stuff down.

If you are breaking trannies with this, then you'd be breaking more trannies without it!

Agreed!

If you use the Tilton throwout bearing. Don't forget to get the Aeroquip quick disconnect FBM-1073, so you don't have to bleed your clutch everytime you pull the trans.

it is not a be all end all fix for breaking transmissions - it is an aide in hopes of lessening the chance of breaking a transmission - broken transmissions are still going to happen, hard to tell how much the valve actually helps, really no way to put an exact answer on if it saves a transmission or not -- imo, worth a shot though

We have plenty of the FCV kits in stock. Tilton Authorized Dealer here. Working on the line kit right now, should be ready end of the month. But if you need the FCV, we can ship same day.

On one of our street cars we use the .028 and it has worked so far. gets the clutch a little hot but seems to work well no tranny issues.

I think if you get it to slip to the point where you feel it slipping, it's going to wear the clutch out pretty quick. Even though you don't feel it doing anything, it's working. Where it might normally take 5 revolutions of the clutch before it fully locks up, it might take 10-20 with the valve on it. Not something you'll necessarily feel, but it's taking the shock out of things. 20 revolutions at 10k rpms isn't very long! lol
