Default Back in action, Finally!!!

As of now, I have a freshly cleaned and rebuilt tt3000 and built 4l65e. Nice, crisp, easy shifts when taking off normal. Didn't mash on it yet cause I wanna make sure everything is working properly and gets well seated. Drove around last night testing it out and all seems fine. I have to get a couple things done after work and then test her out. I put 12 quarts of valvoline max life atf and it still needed more so I added 1 quart of chevron. I guess i'll have to check it again before i make a pass this evening.

Yep. The cool weather is almost gone now, though. I plan on putting cut outs back on my truck and should see some 12.9x's with good weather. I hope!

I didn't like the lockup of the vig. It sometimes took a long time to lock, + 0 towing capacity. Comparing the two, overall I rather the yank. Better driveability, more towing, fits my daily driving needs better. The vig. was awesome at the track and that's it. I'm happier with the tt3000.
