Overview Lansing Michigan in World War Two The U.S.Īuto Industry at the Normandy Invasion, JThe U.S. There’s also a one-way clutch, which smoothly and cleanly disengages the transmission when rolling to a stop, avoiding a potentially jarring 3-1 downshift.Detroit Transmission Division in World War TwoĪn American Auto Industry Heritage Tribute by David D The transmission can also perform large, multi-gear downshifts-directly from tenth to fifth, or ninth to fourth-smoothly and rapidly. Although we’re skeptical, and these kinds of claims are heavily dependent on exactly what constitutes the start and end of a shift, Chevrolet claims that in the Camaro ZL-1, the transmission shifts 26 to 36 percent more quickly than Porsche’s PDK, at least through fourth gear. The system has also been designed to minimize the length of the hydraulic passages and optimize the clutch designs for quick fill times-all in the interest of faster and more responsive clutch operation. These clutches are controlled by integrated solenoid valves, which respond more quickly than the usual two-piece designs. These shifts do not require the torque converter to unlock, which would decrease efficiency. Shifting is controlled by the six clutches, which engage and disengage two at a time to swap cogs swiftly and smoothly. With a low first-gear ratio of 4.696, the torque converter basically aids in a smooth launch, then quickly locks up and stays that way.
