Well I went to leave my dad's last night and put the car in drive. It didn't "clunk" into drive like it usually does, just was there. So I start rolling out and it feels like I'm driving on an oval-shaped wheel or a flat. I stop the car to check my tires and oil-smoke starts billowing out of the headlights. I carefully opened the hood making sure there wasn't a fire and there was smoke coming up from the bottom of the headers (y-pipe area). I haven't determined what oil is leaking on there, but I've but 3 & 3 together and me, Carter, and my dad are thinking torque converter or front pump. With all my $$$ tied up in the new company, this couldn't have come @ a worse time. So who's got a 4L60E that can handle ~370 rwhp? I've never seen a 4L60E survive a converter gone bad. Also I'm looking for a torque converter.

 

Sorry to hear that man. You're welcome to drive my V6 if you need to get around.

 

Damn I should have hit oyu up for that while my car is down

 

Ive got one that sits in the garage all week till the weekly drive on Saturday, check the sig below. You wanna run that for a bit? If you like the ride then buy.

 

One of my buddies has one sitting around, from his '96 Impala SS... I'll talk to him, if you want it!

 

Lol, sorry didn't read the whole post... He already sold the tranny but still has the converter, if you want it!



PS.... It's torque that kills trannys, lol... not hp!

 

Well guys, after further inspection this is a case of mistaken identity...I hope that or I've got 2 major problems. I dropped the pan and there were no surprises which left me rather pissed. Then this morning I decided maybe I should check out the motor just for ****$ and giggles. Engine oil smells like combusted gasoline but there's no coolant in it. The coolant however, has blow by & oil in it. So the motor's toast and I'll be making a new post about that.
So cham, you're offering to let me borrow the SS? I can't guarantee that I'd buy it but my business partner is in the market and the least I could do is hook you up w/ cheap parts....let me know
Mike, might take you up on that. Perhaps do a little labor for you in exchange....have to talk that over w/ the partner.
