Longhorn updates...placing bets?
I say the tranny will be in by nightfall. Wife says it won't happen...Anyone wanna place bets?
I got the tilt in last night along with a couple odds and ends...and today I have the tranny jack from work. I will go in...oh yes...it will go in. Nice 41 degree day too. |

My dad was on my wife's side...saying it won't go in. He lost...I guess I owe him a punch in the gut huh? (never bet for cash...the is a sigh of a gambling problem...my problem is my gut is always sore from betting too much. )
It is in...by the loosest term possable...but it is in. I need to go the the parts store tomorrow and get a tranny mount, this one was beyond kerfaggled, more like fubard. |

LOL! So are we taking bets on how long the black mark(s?) will be before they pop?

10 feet? 3.3 yards?!? bah! That is an easy bet. I'd bet for over 20', but only if I get to do the honors.

My bet, the 4.57 gears will use up 1st gear within 10 feet.......but 2nd gear always makes a better "smoke show" Watch the tack real close Longhorn........those caddys dont like much over 4800-5000. I popped 3 intake springs in 1 season......guess 5500 was too much
