    Tremec 3550 rebuild or new

    Tremec 3550 was leaking between the rear and main case, so pulled it to have it resealed. While it was apart we found the input/output/countershaft was in bad shape too. Called Harlon motorsports and they say they can not get the front/rear shaft and would have to change yoke/cluch to work...

    Which flywheel weight??

    Pulled transmission out of my 90 Mustang to do some transmission work. I ordered a new billet flywheel from LMR that comes with 28 and 50oz weights. By looking at the year of the car, it calls for 50oz counterweight to be used. There is a note that if running a 331/347 to use the 28oz weight...

    What else can cause rotors to keep warping??

    My buddy's car keeps warping rotors every few thousand miles. He kept taking it back to have them ground etc.. like 4 times before telling me. He thought a set of cross drilled rotors may help so he had them put on the last time. 1K miles later, they were warped also. I told him it could be...

    Electrical problem--Brake light and turn signals

    This isnt with my mustang but with the s10 I am building. A friend of mine took the entire interior apart for me and now we arent such great friends so I had to put it all back in. I am missing the brake switch... I can put in a switch and run some wires so the brake lights come on when I...
