We had transmission issues for awhile, and ended up sending the trans back to RPM. Everything finally got done, and i'm back in it. It's still being broken inbut it feels so much better now. We also need a few adjustments drive ability wise too.








And the first time the SS meets the V lol

Next is prob a slightly higher stall converter as the 2800 that I have now is really low. But I'll prob leave it as is for awhile, maybe just get a big brake kit for it lol

Well put a 3400 stall into it and it feels a lot better now. The big cam needed it. Found out we need a fuel pump so hopefully that should be done sometime in the next couple weeks. Other then that this thing is a blast to drive! Once the pump is in back on the dyno we go to turn this thing up, final dyno numbers and track times coming soon!
