breaking ? Maybe....

Ya I've read about shift kits being hard on trannys and some guys saying the opposite....

Not the "Burn out" & "Rabbit start" type of guy.

Hard acceleration until speed limit achieved and I'm happy old man !

Guess I will find out

I have a shift kit in my 99 Silverado along with a tune that removes most of the engine management. It chirps the tires all over the place. I went to pass someone a few years back. instead of breaking the tires loose when it down shifted like it normally does, it caught traction, then BOOM! It shattered the rear planetary set.
