Default Big Thanks To Everyone That Helped

Well once I put my new transmission in the car from Performa-built, all that was left to do is to break it in and have it tuned. Well last friday night while cruising around with everyone the Low Oil light came on. So I changed the oil on Sunday and found the infamous needle bearings on the drain plug. TripleWhite96 came over and we pulled the valve cover off and there it was one rocker came apart. Got on the phone the next day to TSP and ordered the Trunion upgrade. Once they got here, TripleWhite96, DirtyLS1, Slow98camaro, Blasko and myself got the car running again in a couple of hours. Thanks to everyone that came over and helped out. Good to know you can count on people to help ya out in a time of need.

Chris
