Default Going to finally track test changes to the car tomorrow :)

Well,
I have finally found the time to get the car to the track tomorrow to test the new tranny <img src="images/icons/smile.gif" border="0">

Here are the changes since last time out.

Yank 4L70 tranny with manual valve body, lockup and 2.75 first
TP4400 converter
Chromeoly DS
12 bolt with Spool and 4.11's
cut off the catback and just have a bullet on the end of the Ypipe
Removed front sway bar
PCV fuel filter mods

and that is about it. Weather is supposed to be mild so I am hoping it is nice and dry and cool.
I will report back tomorrow afternoon with the results <img src="images/icons/smile.gif" border="0"> I am hoping to hit mid 11's but will have to wait and see! I am going to run with full interior as well. (Minus jack and spare)
Cheers,
Chris

How does the lock up work on that tranny, Chris?

Godo luck with the new combo. I see 1.5 60's and low 11's in your future.

Thanks Ryan,
the tranny automatically locks in fourth gear and also has a manual lockup switch for third in the 1/4 or around town. It is a great setup and the car feels ridiculously strong with the new combo.
Cheers,
Chris
