i almost didnt go! i woke up to lighting and thunder and went back to sleep and got a call 10 mins later saying come on cordavas clear

Thanks for the kind words! Shes my baby lol
My best 5-speed time was 11.7, missing 4th once. I made a few passes that night all around that time.

That was the first and only time out with my "built" double synchroed, 4-spider diff trans. The 600 mile old clutch went out the next trip to the track. Needless to say I was a little fed up with the car and had to change something in it or I was gonna lose interest in it quick.
So I changed over to auto and absolutley love it, on the track and on the street.


I updated the link in my sig so it works now if youre curious about my setup.

A 3 tenth improvment definitely makes the automatic a worthwhile swap! Good job. I wish I would have gotten a chance to see your runs.
Did your MPH change at all from the manual transmission runs?

What's a built Auto trans cost?

Lord know I've spent enough coin putting manunals together.

I got the entire swap for $800 yeah i know i stole it lol, including a re-stalled converter. Trans, t-case, rear end, shifter, tcu (im not using a tcu at all now)

Building the trans cost me about $1600 and its good to run 9's all day long

By far the best money ive spent on the car. I absolutley love it on the street and on the track.

Im running a RoadSurge shift box. Push-button shift at full line pressure is fun

Which is why when my 5spd goes kaboom, I'm going auto!
