BMR 2010 Camaro with a TH400 transmission! (pictures inside)
3 Attachment(s)
We have been doing quite a bit of work with our 2010 Camaro getting it ready for for the Holley LS Fest and the LSX Shootout. We have had this transmission installed quite a while now we have just been trying to work out some details with the car before we posted anything. We will be building crossmembers to install TH400's in these cars, the one on this car is a prototype we built that incorporates a driveshaft loop for our one piece 3.5" aluminum driveshaft. The TH400 uses a 4200 PTC converter and has a trans break which we have yet to use, but should be fun. If you guys have any questions let me know. Here are some pics for your viewing.

Im sorry but I just have to ask. Why do this? Is it the weight savings? I hope its not just for strength because with time I think this trans could be one of the strongest yet with the right internal upgrades. Then as a bonus you get a very low first gear and each gear afterwards is closely matched. Another bonus is you can drive it on the highway without the revs shooting to the moon. I dont know if a trans brake has been made for this but I bet its possible so I just dont see any positives over the 6L80e. Maybe you can explain them because the only one I see is weight savings for the most hard core of drag racers. You could never tune a TH400 to your liking either.

I can tell you we just ran the car last night on a poorly prepped track and it ran a 11.08 at 122 with a 1.56 60ft. With good air and a decent track we will be able to run the car and produce some better times. The car is a full weight car that weights about 4000lbs without the driver. The TH400 works and works well for drag racing which was one of our main concerns. |

Looks great guys!
I like that crossmemeber! When do you think it'll be ready to hit the market? Will it also work with the 4L80? I have some customers using the 4L80 that might be interested in a crossmember. Thanks Chris |

Is this th400 mod for sale. I sure would like to get rid of this 1-2 gear grinding tr6060 for a real tranny:D

If any of you guys have specific questions on this setup and what needs to be done don't hesitate to ask. It seems that the TH400 swap may be gaining some interest as of late.

I think I see a 8 inch coverter in there that should be good for est 4500 stall. A reliable combined force to be reconned with to say the least. The LMR car BTW was converted to a TH400 about a year ago for the October LSX shootout. No longer technically qualified as the fastest A6. Current status is unkown. |
