Keep us posted on the upgrades. The T56 trannys are out there for decent prices if you look.
Yeah, it takes a bit but when she hits bout 30 she goes, then in 2nd it hits another small deadspot and then goes all the way up to 100...
It'll be fun to stay in the powerband with a T56 and grab some gears.

When I save up enough cash for one I'll probably look on craigslist, they seem to always be up there. I have to raise the tunnel of my car a few inches so i guess that's when I'll learn how to weld pretty good.
