my roadrunner ran into a problem

[69hemibeep]

Just a thought from way back in my days helping my father inlaw with his 440 Dart. He used to go through tail shaft assemblies often. One summer went had to replace five. This was due to great traction and engine producing tremendous horse power. The weakest point always broke and it was the transmission tail shaft. You might want to check there since you said you performed a burnout!

that should be fine since gear vendors has a reinforced tailshaft when i did that swap...
no news yet....pulled my back out and havent even looked at it yet uke:

Do I have to come up and do this for you now pussy :jester: Get better, I have never hurt my back but I hear its not fun. :cheers:

Why dont you just kick him in the nuts! :basketcase:

I like johns response! :basketcase: The problem with girlie matics is that when they break they make the guts into hamburger. I second the Lenco!

I wonder what that would cost and I dont think the gear vendor overdrive would work with that

 

[george68hemirr]

well i called lenco and he said no good for 98% street and 2% strip.......i would need a massive cooler for a clutched /stick lenco.....so thats out

Go Jerico, I believe that GV has the parts to mate since its a fancy Ford Toploader. DO IT YOU ALREADY HAVE THE PEDAL IN THERE!!!!

[abodybill]

Good to hear it's close to being back smoking the tires again!

 

[4spd69RR]

Well it is good you are getting back on the road please post some shots and let me know how the 373 work out. I'm thinking to replace my gearing to either 355 or 373. Have not made up my mind yet. I have to get my trans back in the car first.
