Thumbs up Heck Yea

CountaIero for the Win! What kind of engine does it have?

Sorry sorry, back to the topic at hand. NICE TRANSMISSION MAN!

Allright, you did it, you prompted me to get mine, commencing with wallet emptying in 10, 9, ..........


I am going to have some questions for you about part #'s, since it shows you're doing this right and re-habing a good portion of your drive line, you'll see my PM shortly.

Good luck with your R&R in the APT complex lot, hope you're good buddies with the property management team!

Congrats billy!

That trans is beautiful, too bad it will be hidden.

Your drivetrain is stout for sure!!

Wish i was closer, i'd give ya a hand.

To me there is not a lot better/ more fun than getting new parts and installing, a labor of love and pure therapy!!

Git er done!!

Thanks Tim...looking to eventually make it stouter with a trutrac also...I was thinking the same thing about the trans being hidden too, it's too nice to tuck away lol I'd take you up on the help if you were in the area!

Looks exactly like mine did minus the billet input shaft. The FLT trannies are pretty! Damn man, that would suck to do the install in the parkind lot, but it will pay off in the end! Good luck and enjoy.

I got ask, why did you go with such a high level trans with billet parts? Your probably only making ~300whp right? Nice looking parts either way.

I wish I was making 300 rwhp lol...I may just be touching 300...the trans is intended for my future set up, which includes a head and cam LQ9 I've had the block and a set of WCCH StageII 317's for years now, and was on a good pace with acquiring parts to get it all together until I became a daddy and my fun money became day care money...and Zhu Zhu Pets are expensive lol. Took my blown trans as an opportunity to beef up the driveline now so I don't have to do it again later
