Uh oh! You are lucky not to have longtubes to work around.

I will get the specs up for you in a minute...it is a aode so I don't think it will need a tune but I will get with Don soon as it's in........I was actually under the car thinking about now may be a good time for LT's..... but I will give up the extra low end not to fight with it....lol

I have my old MAC longtubes, a matching prochamber and produmps I need to sell if you are interested.

I just put on some identical Jet Hot coated longtubes I got from Chris. Boy what a PITA. These had larger tubes than my old ones and calling it a tight fit doesn't do it justice!

Good luck on the swap. I've got a tranny jack you can borrow if you want to come come pick it up haha.

Wes

EDIT:
Nice specs, that will handle a little abuse. :-D Any plans for a converter? (or did you already have one)

HISSIN50 · Dec 31, 2007

Nice work Will.

You make a mess (like I do).

drakesdad · Dec 31, 2007

Wes....thanks for the offers....but I'll stay short's for now.....and I borrowed my friends tranny jack........problem is I had to take the tranny off the jack to get them out from under the car........jack is up as high as possible....may have to jack on the side getting the new one under.....lol

I have a 9 1/2 inch 3400 stall from Edge I just put in last year...less than 2500 miles.....

JT....I always make a mess......It doesn't hurt that I have been trying to pack up things in the house before putting it up for sale...the garage has become a catch all of sorts........It still needed cleaned after the motor and trans swap for the Chevy pick up.........I'll get to it next year....

Trying to.....remember the promotion...I took the Tech Ops Manager position in Sandusky Ohio....about an hour East of here....I've been commuting 2 hours a day.....part of the deal was that I would move by this July....which I'll be glad to stop driving...but with the housing market the way it is.....might have to sit on the house for awhile.....but I will only be 15 minutes from Norwalk......my office was in sight of Cedar Point as well.......but I wanted to move to the Head End.....to be with my group.

Dude! PM me the Sandusky address! If I'm in town, I'll drop in and say Hi! I don't get up there very often anymore but, I've had dinner more than once at the Damon's on the lake.

I do recall the promotion and about being close to the track now that you mention it. You've been doing the bad commute for some time now.

Sounds like a plan with the houses Will. Is the family cool with it?

95Vert · Jan 1, 2008

It does seem like you make a mess, oh how I miss those days!! Good luck with the build.

drakesdad · Jan 1, 2008

JT...yeah...family is cool with it....promised Drake I would get more land and that would equal getting some ATV's.......Jess is cool with it as well......Tristan doesn't care either way...lol

Rob...the Damon's is right in front of the main office...where my first office was ...419 E. Market.......(Buckeye Cable System)

I am now at the tower...(Head End)......1616 West Strub Rd.....44870...it's between route 4 (Hayes rd) and Campbell....I'll pm you my cell so if your out and about hit me up....we can do lunch at a local joint that has some good food....

Nacho.........I always make a mess.....I normally do a clean up afterwards but didn't get to it after the truck.........

But good news.....I have the trans in......only few things left are the whole exhaust...driveshaft....and a few electrical connections on the trans and put some fluid in it........decided to knock off and spend some time with the family.......

I would suggest if your going to do a auto trans........ask for a extra set of hands to help line it up...........what a PITA............

And so it began today..........
