Suncoast new 10r80 valve body and pump info

[Stage_3]

i think they will be fine on daily drivers. our car has 1340 wheel, but is still full weight and drives great so far.

How many miles on the new parts with this car?

the valve body and pump just went in few weeks ago.

Mustangflanagan,

Sport mode ups line pressure.

could try a trans or kam reset

Do I have to reload the tune after this?

no

I don't think they are preorder... I received mine 2 weeks ago after about a 2 month wait.

Edit: To be totally fair, I had no idea what I received. I ordered the stage 3 kit with valve body direct from Suncoast. I was confused when it came in. I had no idea why I was receiving a pump as that was never mentioned prior to ordering. Perhaps that's why it took so long to ship.

they have a limited supply right now of the valve bodies, the first 15 are coming to us out of the batch they just got in.

so they will still be trickling out

Some questions:

- Would this kit be recommended for a 100% daily driver that sees absolutely NO track use? If so, why? If not, why?

- If used in a strict daily driver with the increased valve body line pressures [SunCoast is increasing overall main line pressure as much as 60psi.], won’t that enhance the NVH or “harsh” shifting even more, which is what everyone complains about with a 100% factory 10R80?

- Does the TCM or PCM need to be reprogrammed? Usually with a valve body replacement, Ford IDS is needed (or Forscan) to load the code off the valve body and to flash in the most recent 10R80 software revision.

 

[beefcake]

programming was answered, but yes, ids should be used to program properly.

stock car, not needed, its mainly extra pressure for holding power under higher horsepower,

What is the cost of these new parts?

I've ordered one but likely won't get to installing until end of winter. I'd really like to figure out if I can flash the trans, as required, with Forscan instead of having to pay up for a guy with the Ford IDS tool. By the way, it's not in vendor descriptions from what I've seen, but the valve body has the thermal bypass removed so it is in constant flow to trans cooler mode. I have a Derale 180 degree thermostatic block that I plan to use with custom lines to a new cooler.

You can flash the new valve body strategy number with Forscan, I've done so multiple times.
I'll be installing mine next week so good to know they deleted the valve body thermostat, saves me 15 mins

I wonder how this valvebody will do in colder weather for daily drivers with the thermal bypass removed
