    trans gone

    well my 2nd gear is gone in my trans after a trip to the track last night... come to find out my belt is a little too big for the truck so it threw the belt off the supercharger but i did run a 14.7 and 100mph in a 1/4... ill post the slip in a few hours after i get it out of my truck... so my ? is about trans.. this guy at the shop has a lvl 3 flt 80e in his shop for a pretty good price would this hold up in my truck or should i just order a higher lvl 80e?

    I would save the money and do an 80e swap. The 65e will break eventually no matter how "built" it is.
