Gary, I would definitely be interested. What type of rebuild is it? Stronger, etc?

Sport, I am definitely not going with the 350 or 400. Way too heavy, no OD, and so on. I was however looking at the 200R4 b/c of the OD, trans brake, and so on. They can handle up to 980 hp if I remember correctly. Thats a lot more than the 4L60E's 700.

I don't know what Im talking about, when will I ever make that kind of power? lol.

With a TC and an auto Waswa will see 11s. Chit, I better be damn close after I get my tranny, gears, and TC. Doin a little weight reduction this winter too. !tranny If only I lost some weight, all you little chits got it easy. 150 vs 220 = almost a tenth and probably a mph.

Supersport, did you get a deep tranny pan too or just the stage 3 tranny? What stall speed are you running? I need me a turbo.

Where does he get all this money? I remember he took out a loan to get the blower last time. No offense to him but that isn't a very wise investment. Especially since he has a kid. Does his wife work?

Well, I'm rolling 15x4 skinnies and 15x10 drag radials right now. Saturday I'm going to pull some weight out of the car, so hopefully I can hit 11s.

Hey Ryan, race you Nissan

Waswa, Ryan, you guys going out to 42 tomorrow? I was hoping to get my headers installed but I'm not sure what my weekend is looking like right now. I'm still planning on going out Tuesday tho.

Ya I am going to still go out Tues. SHould be fun even though I don't have a car.

This winter's mods are now gonna be tranny, stall (3200 or 3500), and some 3.73s. That better get me close to 11s.

I'm figuring the times I currently have are with a slipping tranny so who knows what I could have done this year. I thought the delay up top was the car running out of fuel or something. I know better now.

How hard is the gear install? My uncle wants to throw gears in his '79 TA too and we were gonna tackle it this winter.
