86 is back on the road.
« on: September 26 2009, 12:53:50 PM »
I've have not had a good year..86 trans almost fell out of the car. It's been down since May I think. Well I stole the trans and stock TC out of the 83, it's a used BRF that I bought 7 years ago..120 plus miles and 200 or so passes at the track... Darn things shifts good. barked the tires hitting second. But I forgot that the TCC plugin was different from the 83 to 86, so no TCC. This should give me enough time to get things sorted out....

I heard Zap barked his shins and did not even have to shift gears!  Kinda puts your puny accomplishment s into perspective, huh?

A lot of broken parts does not make you a racer; it makes you a slow learner.

you know when they say that people like agreeable types?  They lie...People like people that buy them dinner, hook them up with willing, goodlooking women, etc.

The parts inside a transmission are expensive and only to be handled by a professional, or so I was told by a certain tranny guy.

Was this tranny pre-op or post-op?
