Yeah, very interesting read. I love GMHTP, but I have already lost this issue. I have searched everywhere for it, but nothing.
Anyways, a very good article for sure. The way they made room for the dry oiling system was pretty cleaver, I thought.

I was in a Chevy/Pontiac dealer looking at a different car and I looked at one of those. I told them its ok but I would want Hot Rod to do some work to it. They looked at me like I was an idiot then I had to explain it to them. They still gave me that look. Oh well.

Kinda hard to run fast when you have to shift to neutral between pretty much every gear.
