The tranny temp went to 270 degrees  So the tranny has to come out to be freshened and the converter cut open and repaired/tightened.
Big 2 day points race coming in 2 weeks...so I have to get it all fixed by then, but I'm out of town next weekend, so It looks like a lot of late nights. |
I here ya also Jim, just spent this week doing late nights in the garage. I'm at a 2 day event right now. Nitrous problems and battery troubles kept me out of the 10's, only went a 11.02 at today's test and tune. Picked up a new Red Top tonight, hope that's the trouble, had to be pushed out of the staging lanes twice today
. Won't be running Nitrous at tomorrows bracket races, I'll post up some video and pics when I get home, Air Card is too slow for that
