ATS 303-006-2326 Billet Proof Billet Channel Plate Instruction Manual
Installation Manual v1.0:
p/n: 303-007-2464 · 68-RFE Billet Channel Plate Kit 2019-2023 Ram 6.7L CR Cummins w/ Blue Solenoid Pack (not included)
Thank you for purchasing the ATS BilletPROOF Billet Channel Plate. This kit enables the transmission to mechanically and hydraulically produce a higher line pressure than the factory transmission setup is capable of. The factory transmission is only capable of a maximum line pressure of 160 PSI in all forward gears. This kit will allow the transmission to produce up to 295 PSI when commanded by the ATS Co-Pilot transmission control module (not included) once both parts are installed.
NOTE: If this kit is installed and only controlled by the factory transmission control module (TCM), there will be little to no pressure increase. The factory hydraulic calibration limits pressure to approximately 160 PSI. If this kit is installed and used with the factory TCM calibration it will still function as stock. While it is not necessary to install this kit to get the benefits of the ATS CoPilot™ Transmission Management Computer, it will increase the performance of the Co-Pilot to its fullest potential and allow the transmission to safely handle power levels over stock.

INSTRUCTIONS
- Remove the transmission pan, then unbolt the valve body assembly and remove it from the vehicle. **_(Fig 1)
_**
- Remove the highlighted bolts to release the solenoid pack from the valve body. Carefully remove the solenoid pack from the valve body and set aside. **_(Fig 2)
_**
-
Remove the two highlighted bolts (Fig 3a) and then remove the shift selection Carefully remove the pin. _(Fig 3b)
_ -
Turn over the valve body and continue to remove all remaining bolts. Carefully separate the valve body exposing the separator plate. _(Fig 4)
_ -
Inspect the valve body to determine if all five check balls are in their respective locations. If all five are in their correct places, do not add any of the provided check balls (Fig 5).
-
Keeping the opened valve body on its side, remove the bolts from the stock accumulator plate. Remove the springs and factory accumulator pistons from the valve body. Take notice of where the springs come from to make sure they go back in the same Lube the seals on the ATS Billet Accumulator Pistons and insert into cylinders of valve body. Insert springs back into cylinders. Install the reinforced ATS Accumulator Plate that is provided in the kit. Be sure to use the provided screws as the stock screws are not long enough to ensure a secure fitment. _(Fig 6)

A T T E N T I O N !
IF YOU INSTALLED AN ATS DEEP PAN EXTRA CAPACITY TRANSMISSION PAN PRIOR TO
2020, YOU MAY NEED TO MODIFY YOUR TRANSMISSION PAN IN ORDER TO ENSURE PROPER
FITMENT WITH THE ATS BILLET CHANNEL PLATE KIT.
The following centerfold serves as both a template and instructions for
modification to your Deep Pan transmission pan. You will need either a die
grinder or an angle grinder to perform this modification.
Ensure that all seven (7) check balls (Fig 7a) are in place and then install the ATS 68RFE separator plate with front and back gaskets. Line up the ATS logo on the gaskets with the logo on the separator plate. (Fig 7b)
Place the ATS Billet Channel Plate back in place of the original channel plate, making sure the 3 parts fit together without a binding or rocking action before installing the bolts, next tighten down all the bolts shown. (Fig 8a) Remember to tighten down the plate working from the inside out using a hand wrench, then torque the bolts in the same sequence to 60-70 inch/lbs. (Fig 8b)
Reinstall the shift selection Next, reinstall the pin and push it all the way
up to the designated position. Place the plate on the valve body. (Fig 9)
Place the selector spring in place and fasten down both items back in
place.
Put the solenoid pack back on the valve body (Fig 10a) and tighten each of the fasteners to 60-70 inch/lbs, starting with the inside and working your way out. (Fig 10b)
Install the valve body back in the transmission. To prevent leaks from the transmission pan, torque the bolts to 65 in./lbs, and take the truck for a quick drive after filling it ONLY with ATF+4. After letting the transmission warm up, retorque the pan bolts to the same 65 in./lbs. spec. (It is common for the pan bolts to become loose-fitting immediately after reinstallation, and the metal has been heated.)
IMPORTANT! Cross leaks in your valve body will cause pressure switch rationality codes! Take your time, make sure any and all sealing surfaces are flush and clean of debris, and torque the fasteners using the proper methods and torque specs. Some valve bodies develop warping issues as they age, causing cross leaks and pressure switch rationality codes. If you are having constant pressure switch rationality codes, a new valve body may be needed if the metal has been warped.
