I found this on a trany rebuild website, I hope it helps: "If your transmission doesn’t shift out of first gear or shifts hard at too high a R.P.M. this doesn’t always mean you have a problem. This could be a stuck throttle valve caused by a small piece of trash. This sometimes happens after a rebuild. Sometimes the throttle valve can be unstuck without removing the valve body. Get up to about 20 to 30 M.P.H. and hit the gas pedal on and off hard with your foot. This might do the job. If that doesn’t work remove the throttle valve cable end from the throttle, with the motor at idle in park, pull the cable in and out very fast, this might work, if not the valve body must be removed by a transmission shop to be unstuck. This could cost $50.00 to $100.00."

Your car is looking great Dale!!

No way! I'm sure he is still collecting parts!

How 'bout one of these!

So you got it started! What was the problem?

That Lakester build is awesome!!! Nice work!

You can use an LS1 tranny, but I think you need the Weir kit http://www.weirhotrodproducts.com/

Cool video! Jay even mentioned the 240Z!

Ah man that is sad! I loved his work, and American Hot Rod.

I have a 1962 Impala convertible with a 409, 4 speed.

Wow!, what's amazing is that he/she (?) does the shading as he goes along, not at the end of the drawing.

That looks like an old CCD that fits a research microscope, That style connector is not used anymore.

Happy B-day Larry!!!

Well at least this is good news! ``Employees will not be affected by the bankruptcy, and the company will continue operations as normal,'' Tomlinson said.

I went through this last summer. I ordered inners on line, and when I got them they were the wrong ones.This happened a couple of times. So I bit the bullet and got the inner/outer assemblies from Nissan ( they come together). On a stock Z there is a left side inner/outer , and a right side inner/outer . Nissan no longer makes the right side, so they sell you two left side assemblies ( driver's side ). This is probably the only way you are going to get the right inners.

Man, years fly by don't they?!

Very nice work John!! Glad you posted!

The coupe looks cool

Very nice! Keep us posted.
