Finally....revisited!
Well, my attitude toward my truck has been up and down lately. First, had to replace the Opticrap distributor. I was told this was a 95 model LT1/4L60E. I bought a 95 Opticrap($318.00).....no fit. Try a 94, it fit but the price for this one is $480.00. OUCH! Oh well, that is fixed. Next, I lose 2nd and 4th in the tranny. Ebay got the nod to go ahead and sell it. No Sale. So, I pull the tranny, have it rebuilt, reinstalled it tonight, and it now runs great. It even gets a good second! I will definately keep it at least for another year. Boy this truck has really got to me... Later, FCG
