Default Anyone in the Philly area?
I was just wondering if anyone is in the Philadelphia area. It would be nice to have a meet around here since all the meets are down south or out west.

Good luck with the trans man. I took mine to riz transmissions on torsdale ave. And they did a heck of a job. Bob (the mechanic) told me that when gm made these cars, that they were put together poorly. I couldn't agree with him more. When he rebuilt the trans, the car shifts a lot more firm than before. U can really feel it shift. But if I were to do it all over again I would have waited for the Challengers to come down a bit
