Uh...this is a F-BODY site. Why don't you try www.gp-owners.com. You will certainly find better help over there...Good luck!

Does it have the 3.4?

I've seen SEVERAL late model trannies mated to the 3.4 basically SHEAR the teeth off of the planetary gears. Not pretty.
Seen it happen on a Monte Carlo 3.4, Impala 3.4, Buick Rendezvous 3.4 and another 3.4 car just last week. All cars were late model '97-'02.

Interestingly, I haven't seen this happen to one mated to a 3.8 n/a or s/c.
