I actually bought it cause the transmission was shot.Thought it would be an easy fix but underestimated the problems that would join the car.I went through 2 transmissions that were supposedly good.Finally rebuilt it then it turned out alright.I think what made me get rid of it was the fact that i had gotten fed up with the garbage trannys people sold me.I figured i would quit while i was ahead (yeah right! 7 months, 2 trannys,all my labor).This summer I will look for a better fox body.I really want to find a police interceptor like my pops one had.

Default New from SO. CAL.

How's everyone doing ? Im new to LS1 TECH. My 99WS6 has been in storage for a few years now because my military obligations have kept me busy for the last few years. Im looking for a reputable and knowledgeable shop in the SO. CAL. area. There use to be Morgans in RESEDA,but that place screwed some people and went under. I want to get some install work done by someone who knows what they are doing.Thanks
