Re: More Chevelle updates
You have got to be kidding me -- the Chevelle ate another one? Next step -- Glide or TH400 ... TAZ

Re: More Chevelle updates
I am so sick of this Goddamned car right now I can't see straight.
If someone stuck a fistfull of cash in my hand it'd be gone tomorrow.

Re: More Chevelle updates
Reminds me of the Camaro. You're on top of Everest, and it comes and kicks you down by breaking yet another thing. Hang in there, Eric. Eventually, you'll find a trans that works, and eventually you'll run out of things to replace.

Re: More Chevelle updates
The trans isn't the problem, it's been trouble-free save for now having a wasted tailshaft seal--which I'm sure is due in no part to having the driveshaft in & out a dozen times.
The problem is the power and the weight--plus the fact that the car usually dead hooks. It's looking more & more like I'm going to have to go to some sort of a twin disc set-up...which is just that much more $$$ that I can't spare right now. On top of that, this clutch fiasco has severely screwed my hopes & plans to get a few other projects wrapped up before the end of the year. Manual transmissions are undeniably cool, but OMG are they one colossal friggin' pain in the ass--specifically, right around the wallet region. [img]<<GRAEMLIN_URL>>/thumbsdown.gif[/img]

Any updates Eric? Did you swap to an automatic?

Haven't touched the car since the last time it was out save for charging the battery once so I could pull it outside. Decided against going automatic, but the car's probably not going to make it out this year at this point. Actually been considering selling it.
