so all parts to fix my tranny are ordered as well as a billet PTC 9.5"

i finally put a proper tach in the car. no more rev limiter shifts.

and finally i ran across a smoking deal on an unmolested LQ4 block with brand new ARP main studs in it for $350. i scooped that **** up and bought a 408 callies/wiseco rotating assembly for it.


time will tell if my turbo is too small for the 408. if it is its a simple matter to go bigger.
