Does this look right. Are all those suppossed to be there?














Oh wait yeah they all belong there.

EDIT, fixed now....

 

Tells me I am not the owner of the album?

 

Looks like a new fancy (A4 ) shifting mod!!!!!!

Back when I did the swap, I changed the pedals first, then dove the car to a buddy's house (bigger garage) to do the rest of the swap. I had the clutch switch wired up, so I had to push the cluth pedal to start it!

Looks good though....or at least how it should look !

We' ll have to call u Shifty

Good luck with the swap Matt!

 

Thanks guys. Any and every driving tip or trick will be greatly appreciated and listen to.

Rich kind of weird we're doing the exact opposite of each other.....although I kinda wish I had a problem finding a way to get 900+ HP to the rear wheels.

 

Lookin good Matt. To be honest with ya, if I didnt know any better I would have thought it came that way. BTW, hows that stroker going?

 

If ya can't find 'em, grind 'em.

Dave

 

Thanks, stroker is going good. The bottom end is just about done. Still deciding on what heads and cam though. I may be able to get my hands on some cheap LT4 heads for porting.

 

NOOOOOO!!! Dont jinx me Dave. Im hoping itll be allright. I messed around with the Pro 5.0 shifter a little and it seems way easier to drive than the ferrari game at Kahunaville....thats where I get all my practice right now.

Dave, do you know how to connect the new sensors on the pedals, mostly the white and black ones on the clutch. There isnt a harness clip for those from what I can see... There are a couple more pics in that album of the connectors so you know what Im talking about.

 

I thought the same thing. If there were any practical way to keep a manny tranny, I would do it. But a Lenco costs ~$5K, isn't really streetable, and is huge. So that's out. The 5-speed G-Force might work, but it's also $5K and both would need a lot of fab work that I couldn't do myself. So were talkin' in the $8,000 range and (with the Lenco) really tearin' up the car. I can get a "bullet proof" TH400 and conveter for ~$4K and it's basically a bolt in.

Should be a fun year for us F-body guys in WNY.

Rich Krause

 

Sounds like a good plan Rich. You were cutting crazy 60's with the M6. Cant imagine with a TH400 and a TC! I cant wait for the track day now.

 

Congrats Matt looks like job well done.

Later,

I'll shoot you an email to explain better, but you only have to worry about the brake light switch and the clutch switch. There is a clutch anticipate switch for cruise control, but it's not necessary to hook up.

Thanks Dave, Ill check my email
