I didn't know Neutral and Park are actual gears, I thought it was a LACK of a gear? I wonder what locking up the converter in neutral gains during a 1/4 mile pass? Gotta be worth three window stickers and some blinker fluid.

My tranny guy never explained it any more then that. If that is true then maybe he can lock it into those intermitent ratios if he so chooses?
When you say something stupid, please don't quote me, I do not want to be associated with your posts.

Thank you for understanding!

No no no, it's a Manual CVT that recharges your vehicles batteries on acceleration. Read his post again!

Well I trust you guys to know the trans event better then the trans guy who built my trans. He has a shop and has built some performance trans for mud racing trucks, but mostly Ford stuff. I have had some problems with my trans so maybe he doesn't know the Chevy stuff as well as he should.

Another fine example of this site, My post started if "If I am correct". Apparently I am not correct. It appears that they are 4 speeds no matter how you slice it. Thanks for keeping the site with the same spirit as always.

In all seriousness you got it finished enough to get it running and didn't update your build thread???

Did you actually run it at the track or are is that just an estimated time???

I am curious if it will hook on slicks.

I want to see some videos of him hitting it on the street and some speedometer clips. If this is all it takes to run 10s, the gibbs is getting hacked tomorrow.
