    Clutch Smell...

    LOL! Why spare your passengers the feeling of muscle? They are the ones who wanted to ride in your car. Heh... I've had some backseat passengers complain that I banged the back of their heads on the rear window. I say they should ride with someone who has a Honda if they don't ever want...

    Mach 1 Break in?

    :nice: Love thy Muscle Car. You know it WANTS to be rode hard and put away wet. That's how I treated my very first V8 coupe (a '65 Pontiac LeMans, brother to the Goat), and it loved me for it. Lasted a long time too, and all my memories with it are fond.

    Official Tremec 3650 Issues Thread

    '04 GT here I noticed some resistance in the 1-2 shift the first week and it was hardly chilly. 2-3 took a little hunting sometimes too, and so I had Pro-5.0 installed immediately. Now 1-2 is not the least bit of trouble even on very cold days. 2-3 shift is dead-on accurate every time...
