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.
How you making out Jim?
