tim at northport machine said he was going to get started on it when he got back from vacation next week and said it would take him about a week to finish and hopefully would be dropped in and running by july

I know exactly what you mean. I don't even bother listing what I want to do with my car because there is no telling when or even if I'll ever get around to doing it. The only thing I'm shooting for at the moment is some slicks for the track day.

well this is just fvckin peachy


i wasn't paying complete attention and i had all the bell housing bolts etc removed and went to pull the trans and it was moving but it was very difficult...i just assumed it was catching on the longtubes...apparently after i removed the starter i threaded the bolts back into their holes about 3 turns so i wouldn't lose them...i forgot they hold the seperator plate to and i just mangled the shit out of it ripping the transmission out thinking it was just being stubborn


anyone know where i could get one of these?
