Also, yes. Stronger springs can cause issue's or why else don't you make a kit using the strongest spring in the industry?. Is it maybe cause the fluid has to be able to over power the spring to apply enough pressure on the clutches and lack of doing so would cause slipping which would generate excessive heat and lead to a fried tranny?

i guess you only installed the apply springs what happened to the stronger springs for the release portion of the unit --- ( one clutch can get in the way of another when shifting and it has higher fluid pressure ) --- the reason for high temps in the first place --- so we have found that some people who do not have the correct tools and equiptment and try to build a racing unit come to leave out or never adjust the spring pressures in the first place --- please note --- the reason most modified transes fail --- not having the knowledge to do it corectly in the first place -- nor should a guy who is not up too speed on the STUFF IN FLUID FLOWS AND APPLY AND RELIEASE PRESSURES but if you believe what you believe so be it but do it for the right reasons -- having done many over many years and have people who depend on you for a good unit at a fair price we use what we have learned as the best way to get us their -- jz
