Raise your game down there! I'm thinking the land of fruits and nuts has gotten in your shorts.

You want a T56 6 speed? I'll bring it down next time I come. Got the bellhousing etc. It's out of an late 80's early 90's Camaro I think. Not sure it would hold up either... those were pretty low HP/TQ cars.
LOL thanks Greg. And you're right.. we've been gum and paper clipping these Muncies all year, and we finally got bit. It has been fun and interesting trying to get the most out of "inferior" stuff - non LS, no overdrive, no Vintage Air... you know, all that REQUIRED pro touring stuff.

I Really appreciate the offer on that T56, but yeah I think it's rated to maybe 400hp if I had to guess.

Believe me, I'll be back with a beefy trans next time out, you can be sure of that.

400 HP might be pushing it!

I know a real estate guy in Lost Wages that wants to spend big bucks on an upgrade --- maybe he'd have a hand me down.....

SELL?! Who said anything about paying you money for it. Come on! I thought you and Dave were tight! Or is that just his underwear?

LOL.... Todd ain't gonna pull that trans til something goes wrong with it. We up here at the Garlic Proving Grounds have no issue swapping trannies weekly. My mechanic is the fastest gun in the West.

Greg, when I race, I freeball it baby. That's just how I roll.

See Todd... I actually was involved in the tranny swap. And beer was involved apparently.

It's OK to peel off those RTTC stickers now. Watching doesn't count.
