    Get a new transmission. The one you have is a vacuum powered pile of junk that if you beat on will be destroyed pretty soon...and doesn't like a lot of power...so if you plan on modding. Get a 4T65E, not a 4T60

    97 GTP had the HD transmission. look it up.

    however, the OP said he has a 97 GT.

    also, this is in the wrong section. i hate this section.
