Hi
As a lot of you know I installed a vortech last winter.. I feel like I haven't driven the car since. :mad: Anyway one thing after another. Started to the track and getting on the highway blew 2nd gear out.... limped home. then put a tko 600 in and have a slight viberation, driving home. Then it started missing turned out to be a broken valve, found it after a couple weeks. Then after fixing that (all new springs), did a leakdown and had a leak finally pulled the heads and found a valve seat coming loose. Heads are now at trickflow being repaired, back this week I think... anyway can't wait to drive the thing :rolleyes: and wait tfor the next problem.

I feel your pain. After installing my Vortech I blew a headgasket. After fixing that I blew 3rd gear in my T5Z. Put in a TKO 600 like you, then 1500 miles later all the bearings in my DSS were wiped out. Car has been torn down for a couple months now...If you want to play you gotta pay I guess

"If you want to play you gotta pay" I hear you!! Just taking longer than I thought:D . Just cause I have more that 2 times the stock horsies things are breaking :shrug:

That is life. I understand just a little frustrated... A lot of peeps have been through worst and lived so I guess I can handle this..
