The SMR COMPETITION ELIMINATOR
VALVEBODY FEATURES:
- An SMR exclusive, PRECISION LAZER CUT, STAINLESS STEEL SEPARATOR PLATE.
This feature permits high apply pressures without the crossflows and warpage that can occur with standard
steel plates;
-ANTI-DRAINBACK VALVING which prevents fluid aeration,
resulting in greater clutch capacity, improved converter apply and hold, increased cooling and lubrication, more consistant
e.t. performance and greater reliability;
-FLUID CHECK IN PARK eliminates the dangerous act
of checking the fluid level in Neutral;
-FULL TIME LUBRICATION provides fluid circulation in all
positions to decrease wear and provide improved cooling;
-INCREASED CONVERTER APPLY PRESSURE provide greater cooling
of high clutches and greater fluid torque transfer, reducing converter slippage generating less heat and improved performance;
-LOW GEAR COAST SPRAG SAFETY feature only allows
downshift to 1st at a stopped or no load situation. This is to protect the roller clutch from possible severe damage.
Shifting to low at a higher speed will result in a neutrallized coasting.;
-FULL OPERATING LINE PRESSURE eliminates
the need for throttle linkage
-THE REVERSE PATTERN (P-R-N-1-2-3) INTERCHANGES THE DRIVE
AND LOW (3rd and 1st) positions so you are always shifting away from Neutral and pulling back with the natural force of acceleration.
This model is best suited to Competition Applications but can also be used on very high performance
street applications where performance and reliability is required. Street operation does require full shifting
and careful use of 1st gear.
LOW BAND APPLY OPTION: When
using the Competition Eliminator Valvebody for street applications, the optional low band apply feature,
allows the driver to down shift into low without coming to a near stop and remains in low gear (without
the freewheel 1st gear sprag protection of our standard C/E Reverse pattern valvebody) until another gear is selected.
The low band apply feature prevents damage to the sprag in street use where spinning on gravel then
hitting asphalt under acceleration or lifting in 1st gear then rapidly accelerating again without upshifting may occur in
traffic situations.
However, due to the inherent shift sequence involved with having the low band applied in 1st gear and
needing to release this band and simultaniously apply the intermediate band to obtain 2nd gear, the 1-2 shift
with this valvebody option (and all other brands of low band apply valvebodies), is not as
quick or clean as our standard Competition Eliminator valvebody. Therefore, the low band apply option
is NOT RECOMMENDED for COMPETITION applications.
COMPETITION
TRANSBRAKE
This is a Reverse Manual Valvebody, with the features of the
SMR COMPETITION ELIMINATOR valvebody with the additionof a Transbrake
feature.
The function of the transbrake is to permit the electronic application of Reverse while the transmission
is manually applied in Low gear. This results in internally locking the transmission so that input from the
engine is not allowed to drive the output shaft. When the transbrake button (which
is applying Reverse electonically) is released, the transmission which is Low gear, will
instantaneously transfer the power to the output shaft, driveshaft, differential, axels and tires to launch
the vehicle.
The purpose of such, is to allow the driver to leave at the same r.p.m. on each run resulting in a more consistant reaction
time and elapsed time (e.t.) Depending on the application, an improved 60ft. time and e.t. may be obtained.
If applied for extended periods, damage to the torque converter and overheating of the transmission
may occur.
FEATURES: -ANTI-DRAINBACK VALVING which prevents fluid aeration, resulting in greater clutch capacity, improved
converter apply and hold, increased cooling and lubrication, more consistant e.t. performance and greater reliability;
-BILLET ALUMINUM TRANSFER PLATE to reduce heat, distortion.crossflows
and leakage that can result with this type of operation;
-INSTANT APPLY upon applying the button (no roll to lock resulting inconsistant staging,
like some brands);
-FIRST
GEAR APPLY ONLY SAFETY FEATURE prevents accidental apply of the transbrake in other gears during competition
or shut down.
-FULL SHIFT PATTERN operates like a non-transbrake manual valvebody when button not activated. DOES NOT REQUIRE TRANSBRAKE APPLY TO BACK UP (REVERSE).
This valvebody is best suited to Competition Use Only.
It does not require a throttle linkage.
This valvebody will install and perform the same characteristics
in the A500-A518-A618 (42-47) RH & RE transmissions. However, OVERDRIVE and LOCK-UP FUNCTIONS WILL NOT
BE ACTIVATED
OVERDRIVE TRANSMISSIONS A500-A518-A618
(DIESEL) including 42RH &RE; 44RH&RE; 46RH &RE, 47RH&RE models
ALL OF THE MODELS SHOWN (EXCLUDING THE COMPETITION ELIMINATOR, REVERSE MANUAL AND THE TRANSBRAKE
VALVEBODIES) FOR THE TORQUEFLITES ABOVE, ARE AVAILABLE IN AN OVERDRIVE MODEL.
