The bad news: I may not be able to make it after all. I know...it was my idea and all. I'll try but won't know until Friday.

The good news: The old Hawk might have an annoying miss going on with the engine in a week or two. Stay tuned .....

Ahh, I would love to give you the rematch....BBUUUUTT, it's gonna have to wait till the new tranny gets here. 3rd and 4th both neutralize if you give it more than half throttle.

Anyone know where i can pick up at 4l60e for a couple hundred bucks???

Must have the removable bell housing.
