Okay guys found a really good deal on a built 47rh w/tc thats not far from me. My question is can a 47rh be swapped in place of a 47re? How much work? And will ECM needs switched? Is the 47rh shorter? Can I just wire up switches? Thanks in advance!:thumbsup:

Holy crap your from cardington, how do i not know you?

Anyways a 47rh is longer then the RE due to the gov assembly in the OD unit. THe plugs on the vb are different as well.

If your looking for a trans i may be able to help you out, Ive built a lot here in the last year and im only 10min from you.

Thanks guys, and I'd rather have an built re but I'm on a student budget and my trucks at a stand still as far as performance until I build my trans or buy one. I'm not gonna mess with the rh if it's gonna be alot of work, And no kidding man your just up the road if your in Ashley! I'm shootin for 400-450 hp for now how much are we talking to build mine up for that minus tc? assuming my stock shafts well hold for awhile.

Can you pull/install the trans?

Single disc, added clutches, dtt shift kit, a couple billet pieces(strut, anchor, lever, accum). does that sound like what you are looking for?

That's exactly what I was looking for not intrested in a tripple disc right now because the lock-up Is to harsh for my shafts but that sounds like a great build, Ive heard alot of good from dtt. Are most of the parts you listed in there rebuild kit? Or do I have to buy the apply lever, acum, ect seprate? I'm comfortable with pulling the trans to get it built.

I would be buying the parts just to be sure i get everything that will work together well for your build. I source the shift kit and billet pieces from dtt, but i get the clutches/steels/soft kit elsewhere due to pricing and shipping from the other side of the country(dtt). We can either go with a DTT single or a Redline single disc. Both are good convertors, redline being my choice since he is more local(wooster).

I have a 47rh at my place right now for a build, just waiting on parts. I will send ya a pm and your welcome to stop down and take a ride in my truck if you'd like to see how it feels.
