Cordell Posted May 26, 2009 Report Share Posted May 26, 2009 Well after some big and small hurdles to work through over the past 6 months my car is up and running. Everything from figuring out what to build, to getting it together has been quite the experience. The last week has been very exciting and full of let downs at the same time. I got the engine out okay, and when i was doing final prep on the new one the oil pump didn't fit. Then after putting it all together it fired right up. Only to chase my tail getting the fueling ironed out. Now that I replaced a bad O2, and got the fueling extremly close for a SD car the fucking tranny won't shift. I just got off the phone with my tranny guy and we think it may have burnt a band. Granted the tranny had about as hard of a life since it's rebuild as I could throw at it. I would love to find something with the tune, but I doubt it at this point. So much fun and fucking headache my car can be. cliffs: My car is being a PITA and I'm whining about it.

Cordell Posted May 26, 2009 Author Report Share Posted May 26, 2009 Well John pointed out something that I had obviously overlooked and it shouldn't have been the way I had it, but that wasn't it. Back to the old drawing board. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
