Well technically it's Hurst Drivelines and American Powertrain's.

More Hurst's since they instructed me to ruin my stock Tremec shifter. I never felt right about that move (cutting the sealing boot), but they're the pro's right? Grrrrrrr.

If I hadn't butchered the OEM shifter I'd be up and running. So technically I pucked myself............and no it doesn't feel good.

There's two Tremec shifters on eBay for around $175. The principle of having to buy it is what I have to come to grips with. Hurst said they are trying to locate one - insert 80/20 rule here. Hope in one hand crap in the other and see which one fills up first.

At this point American Powertrain hasn't returned my phone call from yesterday morning or responded to the email I sent last night.

So I've got $640 paid out for two puking shifters and no OEM to fall back on. Hurst will issue a credit, we'll see how it goes with AP. I am fast learning there's a serious lack of integrity in the automotive sector compared to the motorcycle sector.

First decent weekend weather in 5 months isn't helping either.

Speaking of fun..........What's the '32's status?
