A Few Pics
 

Here's a few misc pics.

What do you mean by "modified" transmission? What did you do to it?

That is cool.:beerchug:

With high torque of my engine,The stock Hydro couldn't flow the fluid fast enough and would only stand about 3,500 rpm's.As soon as i hit the throttle,It would blow the dipstick and all the fluid out.I completely dismantled the hydro and machined all the oil passages as far as i could and changed spring pressures and did some work to the check valves. It has been turned over 8,000 rpm's and has never leaked a drop of fluid since it was built in 2001.

The hydro wouldn't handle more than 3500 RPM's? A stock hydro turns faster than that. Why did it turning so fast blow the dipstick out? How exactly does a high torque affect a hydraulic pump?

You made the oil passages larger? Which ones? How did you modify the check valves? Got any pics of what you did to the pump?
