Hey whats up buddy,
Thanks for the bump.
What time are you guys going to be at Bobs ?
My car is running, just not the way I like, clutch slips in 5th/6th if I jump on it at lower RPMs.
So I've been working on this MN12 in my spare time. I'll also be putting in a new clutch and the works.

I thought automatics were supossed to be bullet proof.
I wish I knew a good source for autos on these cars.
I would think someone local or a sponsor on here ?

Well yes and no, my car had 50k on it when I bought it 12/4/08, it had been sitting for almost 2 years at an auction lot before the dealer I bought it from acquired it. My rear end went 3 weeks after getting it, horrible wear on it, meaning that it sat and someone had some fun with it before me. Second the tranny went mostly from probably never being serviced. Ohh well.

That makes sense as no piece of equipment is bullet proof if it sits long enough, abused or lack of maintaince. 50K isn't to bad for mileage all in all.
I don't think you'll go wrong with auto parts firm and xtreme performance.
Once you get your new converter and tranny, you should be good to go for the duration.
