Is there any possibility that it is the crank or flexplate being warped causing the converter to spin funny and break the pump or the input shaft or something?

correct. Err at least i think so. I have a wedding tommorow. I do know I have no second gear. I feel a lack of builder has killed me again.

Its been two different flexplates.

I think you hold the record for most blown 80e's. Are they just bone stock or what? What year? Sounds to me just like some bad luck....ya know...when you mod anything can and will go wrong at any time.

Damn man, that sucks! Everytime you plan on coming up here your tranny breaks before or when your here... Maybe you should just not plan on ever coming to Fort Worth, that might solve your problem...


So what are you going to do now?

this was a built 80.

Im gonnna talk to a local guy that did the epc solenoid for me. Then talk to a sponsor. I really feel its all lack of a good builder. This tranny was just random shifting way to much and too hard. I think it will still have forward gears. I just have other **** to do this today.
