Question
i have a turbo 350 in my race car when ever i shut the car off it seems to blow fluid out the dip stick i am sure it is not over filled it will blow fluid out every time i shut it off until it is to low to move the fluid is very foamy and light colored, small possibility that there was some water in the Trans or converter so i flushed about 5 gallons of fluid threw it. color and consistency improved but still blows fluid out dipstick? please lend me any knowledge you might have thanks

Answer
Sounds to me like the vent on the top of the tranny is plugged. Its located on top of the case before the bell starts. Pressure needs to vent somewhere.
If you need to get it rebuilt let me know. I am a dealer for Dynamic racing transmissions and can get you a rebuild or new unit if necessary.
If the problem doesn/t resolve call JR at Dynamic 203-315-0138
