8L45 2016-2017 Chevy Camaro 3.6L RWD – Remanufactured 8-Speed Automatic Trans

Description

Locking internal clutch friction plates under 290 PSI pump force while managing 284 lb-ft torque, this Chevy Camaro 3.6L Remanufactured Transmission restores smooth forward power for 2016 to 2017 Chevrolet Camaro 3.6L rear-wheel-drive coupes. Fleet operators prevent driveline shudder during demanding regional transport runs.

Die-cast aluminum alloy housing walls eliminate casing twist under sudden acceleration demands. Precision CNC-machined valve bodies receive hard-anodized sleeves to halt fluid pressure drops within the primary clutch circuits. High-carbon friction plates feature curved oil channels to shed thermal buildup into 9.0 quarts of Mobil 1 Synthetic LV ATF HP fluid. Dry weight checks in at 176 lbs with standard cooler fittings for fast cooling connection.

Key Features of Chevy Camaro

Harsh second-to-third gear shift shock during rapid highway merges leads fleet directors to buy Chevy Camaro remanufactured transmission modules. Recalibrated electronic pressure control solenoids deliver factory shift timing across high-mileage commercial service.

• A 4.62:1 first gear ratio multiplication delivers refined vehicle departure acceleration from stationary stops
• Hard-anodized valve bore sleeves eliminate internal cross-leaks to stabilize third-to-fourth gear transitions
• Radial fluid grooves cut into carbon friction plates accelerate heat dissipation under heavy stop-and-go runs
• Stress-relieved planetary gear carriers prevent pinion shaft looseness under high engine horsepower
• The Chevy Camaro 8L45 system regulates pump line pressure between 215 and 290 PSI without hesitation
• Computer-balanced internal torque converters eliminate vibration through cabin footwells during highway travel
• Automated dyno hydro-pulse testing verifies solenoid response times within 12 milliseconds across all ranges

Hydraulic Line Pressure Calibrations

Starting with a 4.62:1 low gear, this gear train steps through eight mechanical ratios toward a 0.66:1 overdrive that keeps engine cruising speeds low. Operating clutch fluid circuits maintain 215 to 290 PSI pump force to clamp clutch packs without slip. Transmission fluid sump temperatures remain within an optimal 160°F to 190°F range on summer highways. Internal fluid pathways evacuate 850 BTU per minute of heat energy straight to the radiator cooler. Continuous input torque ratings sustain 284 lb-ft at 5,000 RPM without fatigue.

Output Shaft Spline Integrity

Transferring engine rotation straight through precision-ground splines, the output slip yoke resists driveline lash. High-tensile alloy case construction prevents bearing pocket deformation during severe load changes. Internal parking pawl mechanisms hold 1,550 lb-ft of static rollback torque on 18-degree loading docks. Precision dial indicators measure total output hub runout under 0.0028 inches total indicator reading.

Control Module Adaptation Guidelines

Reset internal shift adapts via scan tool before operating the vehicle in regular passenger service. This transmission is not engineered for track drag racing, extreme rock crawling, or gross combined vehicle weights exceeding factory chassis tow limits.

• Each shift scan electronic transmission parameters using professional equipment to confirm correct solenoid duty cycles
• Every 30 days check fluid level on level ground at 175°F to ensure adequate pump suction head
• Every 30,000 miles drain contaminated synthetic ATF HP fluid and replace pan filter elements to protect internal components

Commercial Fleet Crate Package

Fleet investments stay protected by an inclusive 3-Year / 100,000-Mile commercial fleet warranty covering parts plus labor nationwide. Each crated package ships with one remanufactured transmission, a dynamic-balanced torque converter, cooler port seal rings, setup instructions, plus dyno performance graphs.
