Hiho couple things...

Paul Walker wants his steering wheel back.

Why did you steal a shift **** from a UPS truck?

I plan on going faceplated in a TKO. Will see where it puts my 331...Now question is TKO 500 or 600. I like the 500's 1st gear. Will look more into it once I get the T56 shipped.

You can shift without the clutch but Liberty says it causes a lot more damage to the trans over time.

lmao did you see the hole drilled in shifter??? CREATIVE lots of little **** to make it not gutted. tko 500 for sure the way you want to 60ft The 600 is little longer but stilll nothing like the t56. Big question i know you wont answer is how many ft lbs torque is it going to make. and tkos are about 100 ft lbs under rated so a tko 500 should take 580ish all day

Why cant' you just admit the only reason you even fucked with me with smart *** comments from the get go was because I meantioned I beat up on ( your precious) Termi's all the time. I know it must upset you that a DOHC ford V8 that came factory being forged and having 8lbs of boost, and only made around 400hp, and 3.55 gears only ran low 12's (with a damn good driver) from the factory get's it's *** raped on a most common daily basis. It's okay tho man..we cant' win them all.




Since your dying for the reason of why I asked if you was the one that everyone was laughing at about the amount of mods and not running 10's; I will tell you why I asked.

I see someone with a mile long list of mods (including a blower) talking big about about beating up on pulley only/bolt on cars...and acting like they did something. That's like racing cars that YOU ARE SUPPOSED TO OUT RUN and then bragging about it.

If you don't understand what I'm trying to say, I guess my next step will be to try and draw some pictures for you

What's with the need for faceplated transmission? I can shift just as fast if not faster than the guy in the video - with a clutch - and thats behind almost 1000whp! Is it just to be different or what?

This has been seen in many cars, what works good on one car, may not work as well on another. I also have mine tuned to be a daily driver (I litterally told my tuner "dude, tune this car to be an awseome daily driver!" ) He did what I asked and I drive this car everyday without a hiccup or a 2nd thought on where I should or should'nt drive it. I think it's very ignorrant of these guys to jump on me saying my car is slow for it's mods ( if 11.1 with a 1.5 60ft is slow?) yet when I try to give them the rundown of why my car run's like it does (crappy cam, DD tune..ect) they wanna call it excuses. I got no reason to make excuses lol, especially to mustang owners..hell, all I have up on my youtube channel is me beating mustangs ( a few boosted ones too). If I had recorded every mustang that I have beaten then Youtube would've shut me down for uploading too many vids lol. They say my car is slow for it's mods?...hmmm ..ok. The Ford GT was like 160+k$ or more and only run's low 11's. The Buggati Veryron has 1000hp and 4 turbos with a 16 cyl engine and only run's 10's and cost over a million dollars, but yet I get called the guy with too many mods that runs too slow for having a P1 procharger, baby cam,, smallish stall, and mid tube headers with cats still on it ??..FML lol

AWWW-and how about all of the STUPID posts you did slamming Mustangs and Fords???? Your car is slow for the mods and your attitude as you post. PERIOD. Think next time you post and include tons utter crap.. Too bad your are not local-I know some Termis with stock blowers that would punt you back to reality very quickly. You don't have to like Ford's etc but stop posting like your suffer from LMS,LPS where they are concerned.

1. What? The only times that stock LS1's will vary from 280rwhp-310rwhp are either a difference in the dyno that was used or the transmission option. With all things being equal, most M6's from the same model year are going to put down very similar numbers, while most A4's from the same model year are going to put down very similar numbers. So, I don't know where you're getting that claim from. Also, if a certain product has been proven time and time again to yield a certain net gain on X application, and then there's one car that comes along that has X application and doesn't see the said gains, wouldn't there be some kind of malfunction going on with that specific car that needs to be dealt with?

2. Are you seriously comparing high-end super cars to your old F-Body Camaro?

I don't use the clutch in wot conditions, I breethe the throttle and pull the gear. Liberty recommends you use the clutch, but it holds up fine as long as you unload the tranny a bit. Under normal driving I use the clutch like anyone else would.

I saw your little video and if my car had half the mods your car does, it probably would run 8's. I mean what, there are so many mods to your car that you was having to read them off a sheet of paper.


Looks like I struck a nerve
Struck a nerve!! More like kicked him in the sack with steel toes. LOL

I had to fix 3rd gear fp last winter (with the help of 03turbomach). It held up for 3yrs of beating on it....and I row the gears both ways when the 18's are on it. It's a blast to beat on when on a twisty road. Notch won't ride in it when the 18's are on it.

I'll take that as a compliment.

AAAHHHH......No you can't. It probally feels like you think you can....but you can't. The need for the fp is to remove the sycro's. It also opens the shift window and reduces/almost eliminates missed shifts. RPM is the factor the f-body syncro's have a ruff time dealing with. I could probally pull the gear a little faster...but I don't like fixing it.
Here is your .................................. .....................vs ......................................... my shift process
pressclutch .................................................. .................................................. . breethe throttle
what your rt foot does does'nt matter .................................................. ................ pull the gear
pull the gear
release clutch
There's some vids of the car goin down the track on here, take a look at them and then you will see the difference. The car never unloads once it gets moving.

You are correct sir. The next step is to install my Lingenfelter load cell ignition cut (which I have). Then I won't have to lift to shift. The shifter has a load cell that cuts the ing. for milleseconds to unload the tranny.

Hopefully I'll get my rear done in a week or two so I can utlize the car a little better at the track next year.

You need to get a pic of that nice brand new 12sec Camaro SS for your avatar now. I just watched the vid on my 55" smart tv. It looks so much smoother on the tv for some reason. It's great for watchin Youtube vids.
