im going to put money on that it blew up from a bad tune and COMPLETELY wrong line pressure Wich cooked the Lock Up Clutch wich killed the tranny.

DO NOT DRIVE IT or you will be paying for another tranny and a rebuild on the converter Very Soon!

From what I can see of the cylinders there is no scoring or damage.. Will no more when I pull the pistons...

Motaboata 03-23-2011 11:53 PM

Sub Frame Connectors make a big difference... and rear end doesnt make noises no more! yey

My84Z 03-23-2011 11:56 PM

Nice! Have someone weld in those subframes unless you plan to replace them in a year

Formula413 05-31-2013 03:55 PM

299 should be doable. Maybe on a Dynojet. LOL

Motaboata 05-31-2013 10:47 PM
