    Cylinder 5 is dead

    Usually its cylinder #3. Pull the valve cover and start it. You will know right away if you have a wiped lobe. One of the rockers will barely move compared to the others. I f does not move might as well pull the engine.. Put a vacuum gauge on it? Is this engine stock? Flat tappet cam?

    Trans has been in for a while. Made some pretty good pulls with it but now I'm running out fuel. So there goes another $1000. I like how it shifts, we really haven't messed with it that much. Some hiccups at first but Bob and Eric both helped immensely with the set up and tune. We see how it...

    Bob on the shift cable bracket you have c-351 listed. Shiftworks shows a bunch of kits with same number. Do you have a specific part number? Thanks for all the posts you have put up here. Huge help.

    Swapped to a 4L80E

    I ended up using it. We slid it in there and twisted it into position with a pipe wrench. If it was straight on the left side, it would have fit better.

    Nick Micale. Rest in peace my friend.

    Rest easy Nick. I always read his posts. I met him in 2019 when I bought a TTA from Lyle. He let us use his lift to inspect car. I met him and his wife and few members of his family. They were all very nice people. We were there for a couple hours talking. Very sad day.

    Kent-Moore J-37089

    Thats for 3800 engines. I have one of those. I had one that did gn balancers but don't know what I did with it. They came from the dealer when I worked there. They would throw the old tools out. Never made it to the dumpster if I was there.
