The stock transmission is designed to handle the output of the stock engine, but not much more. Increase the durability of your drivetrain with a BD transmission. All transmissions come with BD's heavy duty transmission pan and most packages come bundled with our auxiliary transmission filter kit for added protection!

Note

  • No Race abuse covered. Remote filter required for inspection with cooler flow rate in GPM at Oil/Air transmission cooler outlet.
  • BD torque converter must be installed at the time of installation of the transmission - use of a 3rd party or OE converter will invalidate the transmission warranty
  • Some later 1993 models came with 47RH (3-pin) transmission instead of 518 (2-pin). Confirm pin count of the plug going to valve body connector is 2.
