damn...that blows. too bad it wasnt the same scenerio that happened at the track a few weeks ago when everything turned out ok. good luck man!

 

Andrew... sometimes I wonder about you LOL. *shakes head slowly*

 

Same exact thing happened to me! I mean identical! I originally thought I broke the transmission. I could still move 10-15mph in first gear but anything higher than that it just revved up. Sounds like your clutch sir.

 

that sucks man hope you get it figured out soon and get it up and running again glad i didnt go to sonic tho i would have been waiting a while lol

 

I'm not totally convinced of the trans output shaft yet. How the heck can I shift the trans mission revving the car NOT USING THE CLUTCH AT ALL???? There should still be some binding of the transmission going from gear to gear with the tranny spinning at different RPM's not using the clutch?


Mean94LT1 this happened on Saturday. I was in the lovely silver Ford FUCUS! But it started raining so we turned around on our way to sonic.

yeah it was raining when you text me and said you were going so i didnt go

 

Either you ripped the splines of your input shaft and/or hub in the clutch or the clutch itself explored, thats the only things that will make your car run like this, as much as you'd hate to, pull her out.

 

Pull the clutch inspection cover and take a look in there first. Either way at this point it doesnt matter the entire driveline except the motor has to come out.

 

Ugh, sorry to hear it Bruce. All that power combined with a manual is pretty rough on the late model Corvette platform/driveline.
I know this is blasphemy LOL but maybe put an automatic in, the car will go quicker and break less as well.




Nah I don't think it can be the flux capacitor, it would at least catch a little in 1st and 2nd gear if it was that. Unless of course it's an Auto Zone flux capacitor which is almost the same one that Walmart sells, it's decent but when it lets go it takes out the U-joints as well.

 

OK Ladies the verdict is in.
Took apart everything minus the clutch last nite by myself and then Reido came over to get the driveline lowered and that sucked.
BROKEN TRANSMISSION MAIN SHAFT! Damnit Blu and Kurtomac are on top of their game folks LOL! I really freaked myself out, when I would turn the torque tube shaft the rear spun. I was like OMG its either the clutch or nothing wrong with the car and I took it all apart!!! But when I got the diff and trans apart that was my present So there it is folks.

 

bummer. back to stock for awile or you just gonna leave it apart untill you have the coin to fix it?

 

lol

 

sucks bruce hope you get it back on the road soon

 

Bruce....Gforce Trans in Annville has mainshafts, also upgraded ones that are stout if you want to spend more $$$.

I'd take your trans up there and have them look over it. Beats shipping it anywhere and they know their ****.

 

Hold your panties ladies, Bruce should have his trannie and diff back in a week! I WILL see that 9 sec pass this year damn it!

 

Ugh... not a pretty sight. And holy hell... I thought a T56 in an Fbod was heavy. Add on a rear diff to it, and bulge some veins in the forehead! lmao!

 

Thanks for the pics LS123

 

damn! goodjob on the carnage.

 

That rear should have not come apart like that. Hey if you need it I got some of that crazy glue overhere? And if not comfy with that there is always the JB Weld available.
