    New guy coming from the DSM scene. Recently bought my first Grand Prix with a bad auto trans. They guy had a good trans Togo with, spent 1 grand and drove about 6 hours total. Can I bring the trans out of the wheel well or am i better off pulling the motor and trans together? Is there a writeup for this sort of thing (like vfaq for anyone familiar with tuners) thanks in advance

    edited: Do what they said. Looks a ton easier. Wish I found that before I put my engine in, I would have swapped the tranny right away just to be safe. Good luck!

    A few more quick questions. The right side of my guage clust doesn't light up. Can I easily fix this? And also could I hold the motor up with some wood blocks while dropping the subframe or am I better off spending 100$ on a holder?
