Ya it was redline then i started hearing my tranny destroying it self even more but i really dont care cuz im probly gonna have to getr a new one and if it comes to that ill buy a B&M.
When my tranny died a few months back I had a 100 mile drive on the interstate to get it home and less than half way I lost 3 gear for a while. I only took it to 70 in 2nd though. It was pretty loud going 70 in second I'd like to hear what 80+ in second sound like.

Geez guys! 90 mph in second gear? that's outrageous, 2nd gear in my car is only good until about 50mph! maybe the 3.90 gears have something to do with that? haha did you ever think that if you could do 90 in 2nd, that you could do 180 in 4th? too bad for aerodynamics on our cars. That would've been great.
