Default I am on the road again!
Well even though i went ahead and put a roll cage in the car, I do not want it to be a track car only. So I found a good deal on a 6 speed setup with pedal's and shifter and everything so that is what I bought. I put a Mcleod twin disc clutch setup in it also. It feel's stock.Even though it will not run better et's at the strip it will be more fun for me.It is a blast to drive.This will keep me happy for awhile i think!

is it a stock M6 if so you will want to call T56 and get some Synergin fluid for tranny. My stock one blued the gears causing a very expensive rebuild.

Yes,unfortunatly it is a stock tranny. I couldn't wait for 6 to 8 week's to have one built,but maybe it won't take as long toward's the end of the year for a rebuild.

I am sure a built tranny will break. It should just take a little longer for it to.
I just like driving the car and have a couple of trip's coming up so I wanted to be able to drive it.Going to the beach week in myrtle beach in 2 week's so that is the reason I was in kinda of a hurry.
