Default Thanks Willfulone!!!

Chip came by today and helped change out the transmission and differential fluid and drop off one of his SWEET catch cans. Thanks, Chip.

One word of caution. If you're using Royal Purple in the transmission and differential, the bottles look exactly the same. We got to talking and had to do the transmission twice...

Took Chip for a quick ride and let him drive the BEAST!

The 402 is flat out sick with power. No two ways about it. Thanks for letting me drive it.

Peace
