Car is all put back together, up and running again, will head for the local 1/8th mile test track Friday evening to see how things are now. A short check-out drive up and down the road last Monday suggests that there should be big improvement on ET. Personally, I was just glad to see my mystery rebuilt transmission go through all the gears fine and nothing spraying out from underneath the car when I got done. An awful lot of stuff got changed and hopefully improved.
The auto shop owner where I work on the car at got real interested when the initial firing and break-in of the engine happened down in the end bay. Normally he kind of leaves me to myself down there unless I need him for help with something I can't do alone. After he helped with the idle mixture and timing adjustments, when we shut the motor down from the break-in period, he remarked "that is the most pissed-off sounding 6 cylinder I've ever heard".
Yeah baby.....

Public thanks need to go out to to Lyn Smith for a spare torque converter he had that got things hurried up on my re-do. We'll see how she works Lyn! Thank you.
