I was thinking of stopping by for a few minutes after school....was hoping a certain car will make an appearance if it's completed!!

422

 

The car is back in Houston again with a blown transmission. I only had if for 60 miles, and 25 was already with the transmission blown. I had to get back home limping.

 

Dammit!!! Sorry to hear the news...hopefully it will be resolved soon. Was that the stock tranny?

 

No the stock tranny blew once while it was in Houston. This was supposed to be a rebuilt that was going to be able to hold the power of the 422. Obviously that wasn't the case. So we'll see what happens and what comes out of it. I think my car is cursed...

 

I'm not up to it physically. Right now I have a sore neck from falling down some stairs, am sick and have a broken hand. So, needless to say, I won't be there.

 

Damn Mr. Bill...sounds like you're having worse luck than Ben

 

me

i'll be there. and i hope to see the rest of SASS out there as well!

 

You don't even know the half-of it. There is more, but the story would be too long. Especially since I can only type left handed.

 

Yeah good luck and I hope you feel better Bill.

 

Yeah, feel better mr bill, even though we've never met.

Ben!!! Who was it that told you the 4L60E wouldn't hold?

What's replacing it? Another 4L60E? Who's building?

 

Thanks guys!

 

Car is down in Lufkin still. Get this, the Chevy dealer put a new timing chain and gears in, when they started it up, there was (as they put it) more internel damage. Wow, I would of never thought of that. Anyway, the car will probably be there for a while. They are suppose to tear down the topend and see what went wrong. I hope they just replace the whole engine.

 

i'm not sure if i'm allowed to show up anymore.

I have a 6 cylinder now, and its not an f-body

clarke

 

I would like to show up, but I have to head out to Devine to pick up a mower and don't know when I will be back.

Sorry to hear about the car Ben. 3 motors, 2 trannies, what next another rear? Good luck with it.

 

Scott - - another rebuild...

Clarke - what's up with your car now? Do you still have it and is it okay?
