85-140 + 10-bolt = crap.

Even though both wheels didnt move counter-directional they looked the Torsen T2 over VERY WELL when they got it out and said it is MINT! The shop says it will definitely NOT! peg-leg. I will test that as soon as I get it on some grass or a puddle or something slippery where I wont break this pansy *** thing and make sure it is indeed working.

I'm not going to bother reminding you anymore how few people have so many issues in such a short time with their LS1 cars....or that your car is the exception and not the rule.
There is just no point, because you won't beleive it.
I don't know what you expect from a car with plates like 666 SYN or whatever it was.

Problem: sticking IAC
Explanation: Yeah, the computer knows that I am in neutral and going to stuff it in the next gear so it holds the rpms up 2-3K for me.
Problem: Leaky pinion seal/engine oil/water pump
Explanation: Denial or unawareness
Problem: Exessive oil usage
Explanation: I have not driven in 6 months and didnt check it or simple unawareness.
A lot of people dont take care of their stuff. I do. It may seem like I have a lot of **** go bad on me but in reality it isnt much more than anyone else. Difference is. I FIX IT! (And post about it). If you look at each one of my posts you will see half a dozen guys saying "oh yeah...mine did that too."

IMO, you assume too much in regards to the average person.
You once thought that you were the only person around that could noticeably "feel" a slight drop in HP between 5500-6000rpm. After you argued the point for quite a while, then you later discovered that it was just your foot coming off the throttle.

And there are plenty of other threads here with the same problems and solutions , not like it's never happened before and this is uncharted territory.And one friggin' thread , not three, would have been more than enough of the subject of his diff breaking.

wtf is up with the banned moderator^^^?
ah, leave the OP alone. if you bought an f-body and intended to keep it stock, then spent enough money to buy a heads and cam package just to maintain it, you'd be pissed and grasping for straws wondering where you went wrong, too. face it, his car is a fluke. he's the only one going through this ****, and when you're the only one suffering through this, you start trying to come up with wild explanations to answer the age old question: "why me?" most of you would be doing the same thing. you should all be happy you're not in his position.
i agree. you're one of the only people in this thread making sense. it's easy to criticize when you're not going through it. use your imagination and walk a few miles in his shoes. see how you feel. sometimes being in an extraordinary situation leads you to say and do extraordinary things. these extraordinary things may not always make us look good, but we do it because we're under pressure, backed into a corner and have no choice. lighten up guys and try to see the big picture, here.

This thread is done . For future reference: post ONE thread about whatever problem you're having , if someone(like an ASE certified tech) points out that you screwed up , do not delete it & start a new one and for the love of God , at least try to see if somebody else has posted a previous thread about the same topic!
And the banned usertitle is a private joke.
