        • glad to see another lsx thirdgen in michigan. bout time you joined us!

          there are two in st.clair shores, one in clinton twp and my two soon to be 3 that i'm aware of in the area. it's well worth the work in the end and the gas money alone that i saved after one year almost pays for one of the drivetrains. i think there are more fox bodies on my side of the town with the swaps then thirdgens.

          good work, keep it up!

                • Took the car out today for a shake down cruise...WMCC Zack rode along with me. Thanks Zack for helping me put the hood back on.

                  Car ran great, with only a few minor issues. Gotta figure out why my speedo isn't working and I also blew a bunch of trans fluid out the vent on the T56. Long story but apperently when you buy a brand new trans that has a big bright orange tag on it that says "Unit does not contain any fluid" don't believe it. I "assumed" the trans was empty and dumped in 4 quarts of fluid....never even thought about checking to see if the trans had fluid already in it....hence the big bright orange tag. Anyways she was a bit full to say the least! Now I have to clean all the fluid off under the car and on the back bumper

                  It's such a different experience driving the car now. I am so used to having ass loads of torque down low right off idle, now it's pretty soft until you hit about 3500rpm....then it starts to pull pretty hard. I only took it up to 5000rpm once or twice...but it was SO tempting to keep my foot planted.

                        Yeah...guess so....I normally wouldn't do something like that (because of my inherent anal-ness) but it slipped through the cracks I guess.
