************UPDATE****************
Got the truck back on thrus 5/11. Trans works great except for the tune that is in it. It has the stock tune with a 3000+ lockup convertor in it. SO it drives like absolute **** right now But as soon as I get it in Don's hands it will be happy again.

A side note: the convertor is a one off built by a guy in NY. I guess it has part of a 4l80e billet cover and them the other half is a custom billet Olds Aroura cover. This truck is friggen Frankinstien.

Keith hooked me up with one of that NY guys Frankenstein converters in my Hoe. He used a stock TB verter and rebuilt it with some Yank componenets... it ROCKED!
You're in good hands w/Don and Keith, those two totally know their ****. When you bringing it to Dez's for the tranny program?
