Nope. Shifting is quick and smooth. No tire chirping shifts. Mods are heads, cam, 3600 stall, 4.56 gears. I'm putting down 400rwhp also

Does this mean you are making the mistake of a life time and putting more money into a junk 60? If that is a case you might want to swap a cammed stalled ford engine in front of it so there is less chance of it blowing up soon.

Yes. I am fixing it. Since it was a factory part that let go and nothing they did. Fixing it is way cheaper then a 80e swap. Now that there is no factory parts, if it does break again, its on them for sure. And when it does break again, a 80e swap will be under way. I won't dick with this 60e after this time.

Oh ok, I am not up to speed on their levels. What is their level 7 then? Maybe they add a Sonnax super drum or whatever it's called.
