    AUTO,yes im thinking auto!

    1 is 1st obviously, D: if u manually throw into d it'll throw both 2nd and 3rd, there is no way of holding 2nd with a stock valve body other than doing the shuffle. For example: if ur racing someone from a stop, u take off with shifter in D, it goes 1st, 2nd, 3rd right? depending on ur cable...

    AUTO,yes im thinking auto!

    in order to be able to hold 2nd with a stock valve body..yes...say u take off at wOT in 1...shift it up to D and as soon as it hits 2nd , drop it back to 1 and it'll hold 2nd till u shift up to D again. the reason I would do this was just to make the tranny shift at a higher shift point other...

    AUTO,yes im thinking auto!

    the transgo will not eliminate the full automatic option, only if u go with a lentech manual valve body or other manual valve body brand. I had a transgo on my car and would occasionally do the 1 D 1 shuffle tp hold 2nd gear. even though its not recommended to do the shuffle it would be the only...

    Rearend Question

    I have the opportunity to buy a fully built 8.8 rearend off a 2002 GT for $400. It has all the goodies (spool, c-clip eliminators, 31 spline axles, 3.55 gears, TA girdle, slotted rotors, etc). I eventually did want a 5-lug conversion for my LX. I know these rearends are longer than fox rear...

    Smog pump removal

    When removing the Smog Pump and tubing, there will be holes behind the heads that will need to be plugged. Ive heard of people using spark plugs to plug them up. Never tried it myself.

    14.3 again....

    He does need to practice and get them 60fts down right. I would recommend the MAF, Injectors, Fuel Pump, and Fuel Reg. I ran 13.9s on a cammed only, AOD car stock 3.27 gears and trapped at 98mph. Even with current setup you should see mid to high 13s with the right 60ft looking at ur MPH.

    Valve Spring Recommendation

    Just wondering what springs would be recommened for my setup. I noticed that @ 5500 the car acts like its bouncing off the rev and just wont pull. Im guessing valve float is the culprit. Its an E cam with 1.72 rockers on stock E7 heads. I went to Comps website and Summit but there is so many...

    Removing tensioner?

    I deleted my tensioner last week when I installed the new alternator. I did cut the alternator bracket and had to make a small bend on the a/c one. I bought the tension rod at a local Tractor Supply store for around $7. Its adjustable and works really well, and easy. Here are some pics.
