The big end was re-surfaced, and it is still not packed down hard, the best I can tell. Seems every time I get past the 1/8th mile, she starts walking around. Maybe it just needs a nice "groove" worn in ?

Thanks ! I don't have a 9 sec license, so I only get one 9 sec pass before getting sent to tech. Also the reason I don't add more power or take off any more weight (~3530 lbs racing weight).

No, it has a Liberty 26 spline input shaft... uses Royal Purple Dexron III ATF. Oh, and a piston shift knob, of course !!

Yep, it is ! Actually has not had the 3-4 synchronizer struts changed or anything else. And, Ratt Fink did the input shaft install, and shimming, all by hisself ! :veryhappy:

Did you need to re shim or did the stock shim work?

The stock shim would have been too thick, actually, on my trans. I believe it required one about .003" thinner.
