    Black betty had child (bam-A-lam) the dang gone wild (bam-A-lam)

    So we have known for a while that atleast the pressure sensor in the tranny has needed replaced but I think an axle might be going bad because when taking off or letting off the throttle, there are a few pops/cracks/creaks that you can hear. Any idea's?

    I thought that was the normal sound of the North American Grand Prix During the Spring time.

I love my black coupe as well and I agree with you on the gulf blue but the white ones are pretty sharp and I came across a dark red one last night and it looked pretty decent surprisingly.
    I think that if the front and back bumpers fade and then you paint where it faded take that 372.657HP and add like +1000.25HP and that = 1fastgt

    So it took about 1hr-1 1/2hr to do it, thankfully I don't have to deal with leaves and mice nests in my intake anymore. I'm surprised how much louder this thing is now! I love it!!!

    Will the 04+ rear seats fit in the back of a coupe? May do some mufflers and tips this weekend or soon.

    Was this thing on fire before? Also that upper hose looks like it would be spongy/oily from leaky LIM.

    sure looks like it if you look at the engine cover.

    Yeah the engine cover definitely gives it away...plus there is a little something on the valve cover too. Me thinks someone was showing the motor to a friend while it was running and it caught flame and they were lucky enough to have a drink in their hand.

    It was caused by the oil leaking onto the manifold from that recall a few years back. My brother was driving across to meet us at Dale Hollow Lake in it and it lit but he was able to out fast luckily, that's all the damage that was done.
