    I always lose. My cars slow. And they're not burnt out, I removed them a long time ago. Looks better imo.

    Tax return will bring a built trans with better gears hopefully. That should help for sure

    Stop making free, interest- free loans to the government and use the silly huge FWD trans money pile to bring home a G body Regal and an LS 6.0L. A guy with your skills could make that happen.
    All Grand Prix, all the time. 69 Model J, 99 GT & GTP coupes. All junk, haha.

    You have no idea how much I fighting with myself between putting a trans in this and moving on to the rwd ls platform... I will say if I can build a trans for cheap enough I'll do it and keep it around as a daily and move on.. I just keep going back and forth though.

    Compare mild LS dyno torque to mild 454s. Think TH400 trans. Zig while everyone zags and use unloved BBC truck stuff in an unwanted X body sedan maybe. Theres other fast recipies that have been forgotten and are cheap now. They work with one wire and tune with hand tools. Gas is a dollar and a half, man. Good luck with babying the Regal for now, seriously.
