okay, I am not one for the transmissions, but what does the 99 3.8 have? is it the 4r70w?

Avaric3 · February 4th, 2008, 06:32 PM

ya

whitemustang02 · February 4th, 2008, 06:34 PM

ya if it is a auto.

mmvi · February 4th, 2008, 06:36 PM

so the auto 3.8 has the same transmission as the 03 auto 4.6?

whitemustang02 · February 4th, 2008, 06:42 PM

ya
why

mmvi · February 4th, 2008, 06:46 PM

I was researching my transmission and what I could do to make it stronger, and I didn't know that these two cars had the same one.

whitemustang02 · February 4th, 2008, 06:50 PM

ok, well there isent much u can do to make the auto stronger other then building it, wich can be a bit of a time consuming pita.

itschristorres8 · February 4th, 2008, 07:12 PM

j-mod valve body
and changing the fluid every 40k miles

if you've waited to long like 80k with out changing it...i probably wouldnt change it

ya those r good things to do, that will make it a better trany, but they won't realy make it any strong (ie. able to andle more power)
not trying to be a hard as chris just want to clarify this.

Number one
i simple j-mod will allow i to handle a little more

Everyone has this huge fear of cracking an automatic open

its not as big of a deal as its made to be
