Geez, and after once of doing it myself, I never want to do it again. 7 times? Wow, that's amazing! I bet you can do it blindfolded by now, eh?

I've been through 4 700R-4s, and yes, I bet he can do it blindfolded. Lord knows I can pull a tranny in 30 minutes in a driveway now. I switched to a T56...and damn...liked the results. Blew up my rear end though...ugh. Damn those automatics...they're nuthin but trouble.

If you've gotta fix it, fix it better than stock.
