rytherwr Posted March 16, 2007 Author Share Posted March 16, 2007 Update...cautiously optimistic...transmission folks say I may be up and running with the 4L80E by Tues evening....I have everything crossed...(we-e-e-l-l-l-l-l-l, not EVERYthing) that we can pull this off. If not, powerglide it is. By the way, I just thought of something... RIP/John/Jerry...If I don't need my PG, I will bring it in case somebody else does for some reason....it's a Godley-built 182 with 3800 stall converter set up for nitrous W/a bracket brake. I believe it will take some abuse..Godley builds a good trans. Anyway, keep things crossed...) Wayne Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jnjdragracing Posted March 16, 2007 Share Posted March 16, 2007 Wayne as I have said before I wish you the best with getting your Z ready, tell the trans shop to hurry up. That you have somewhere you need to be with the car. Thanks for the offer of the glide. If we break out glide then we will spectate. Thanks..... John PS: Did you ever sell the other car?
