Default Just wanted to introduce myself

My name is Greg Darnell as if you can't tell. I currently have a 99TA sans motor and tranny it is pretty much gutted. I am not exactly sure as to what I am going to do with it. Maybe a drag car later on down the road. I also have a 94 GMC pickup with a 385 and all sorts of other crap and a fried 700r4 (B&M built peice of crap) about to resolve that with a better built one supposedly going to handle 700hp we shall see. I seem too have a problem with destroying trannys about 15 to date from 4 different vehicles. Well enough of my life story just wanting to say Howdy.
