We do not use a thermostat or check valve under any circumstance.

I've bought BAM trannies for plearsure and race for myself and customers. Never had any failures due to manufacturing or quality. Marc stands behind his product better than anyone in the industry.

Marc-
Thanks for the answer. Can you convert Hubers to make BAM units?

Due,That was a plug for Bam....See my Thread of "Block to bell housing dowels" on the technical Q&A....Bam made valid installation statements,from the engine block back....If you find pricing on the drive line dampener,please let us know....I'm of the opinion,if the bell housing,drive plate and flywheel are fitted,the transmission and starter will be alot happier.Then,if the drive line is dampened it will absorb, shock preserving the bell housing and drive plate hub location.It is my understanding,the dampener/isolator eliminates metal to metal contact between the transmission out put flange and drive line.Thereby,reducing electrolysis......Stay in touch, sensitive!!!

Lloyd-
What..... me sensitive? Should see my face tho... since I just had a CO2 laser treat....look like raw hamburger.

I was particulary interested in knowing about the thermostat. I've had good luck with the Hubers (except for my own errors), but am concerned with their requirement for a thermostat to keep temp at 180: because of the new clutch plates. I'd prefer to keep it simple.

Thanks for the info, you guys are amazing!
When can I come visit?

be carefull with thermostats in transmissions. I have seen hubers burn uo cause of the t-stats. Talked to alot of people about t-stats and they removed them from the transmissions.
