I just noticed you picked up a pro 5.0. Did it help you at all with the 2-3 shift? Do you like it better than stock?

will do man, dont know when i will grace you guys with my presence again.

lol

you can not go wrong with the pro 5.0, but seriously, bolt a lous stick on that hurst shifter, and itll be fine. It is what is currently in my car. I am pleased with it. Ive had 5.0s in my SS, and my old mustang, and the only reason i dont have a 5.0 in my car now is because it got sold with my brothers car. It is a touch notchier than the hurst, but the stick you use makes a huge difference.

this guy could not hit a 2-3 shift if his life depended on it.... he could have an automatic and still bounce it off the limiter....

Oil drops $20 a barrel and gas stays high.... northside hasn't budged ($4.09), southside is down to $3.78.

i had to
says the guy that had a 12k mile 02 ss camaro with qtp long tubes, ory, and gmmg exhaust. how many susp. parts? a computer tune by the one and only hocky...on drag radials. after many trips to the track and passes down the 1/4, only bested the time if a lid/muffler 99 ta on street tires..my second pass ever in that car...that is currently still dragging on every grain of sand on the road...by less than a tenth. oh, and you suck at rsv2, also. you're lucky i wasn't around saturday night or i would've waxed that *** at resistance, too. i would've made styles my bitch too after his xbox360 comments haha.

and with regard to the pro 5.0 - the car will chirp 3rd/4th now, but as far as hitting gears go...i just can't drive. at the track i have no problems, on the street i am a disgrace to all of those driving a 6 spd. figure that one out. i love the shifter, though, it's nice. the ta is a nice car and drives perfectly, despite the 78k on the stock trans and clutch, it still shifts very nicely. i am afraid i will eventually kill the trans and be forced to replace the t56 with a lenco.

ok.... lol you know the reason, and thats the reason the car isnt around anymore... I couldnt beat on it. I diddnt want to tear it up. I do recall however the 3 am pulls after the southside where you consistantly got drug no matter where we went from. I could care less what that car ran at the track because id have to put a better tire on it and give it hell to make it leave. Im happy with a tenth faster, on a tenth worse (at least) leave.

give me more grenades and we will see there also on rsv2 because im pretty sure i ruled their **** in mulitples of 3 most of the time

resistance??? call stiles up and we will set something up real soon, that is if your babymomma will let you out to play. I really want to do that.

afterwards if you would like, i can wake you up, and let you know its thursday. You mustve had a good dream last night
