MC don't temp me my friend, I'm itching to pull the trigger on the new motor.


Yea I'm real pleased with the tranny that Chris put in the car, Iv'e run it hard and it has held together well. I like the fact that once it's built to, to rebuild it is only 600-800.

With the converter and the 60's I pull I figured it wouldn't last long, but she's still going.

The real test will come when I spray it, Like my1fast99 200 shot
:yesnod:

Yea, I rebuilt the tranny when the motor went in. It lasted through several years of bolt on's, then heads/ cam, then spray, and then God rest it's little 346 soul my motor went to the great LS 1 heaven. :lol:
