Reassessing my opinions
Well just to start off, guess this is kind of a rant of some sort to blow off steam.
As many of you know I blew up the rear on my 98 Z28 last year... Replaced with a Moser 12 bolt rear and then found out the trans took a dump at the same time...
So rather then mess around with another used trans, I decide to get a built unit and billet converter... I should have known there was going to be problems from the start when the trans itself was delayed for unknown reasons... This was back in April.
...Fast Forward 4 weeks later...
Trans is now installed... all is good... converter only stalls to 1400 RPM when its a 4100 stall, figure, hey... needs to be broken in or something, right? Take it for a ride... BANG no movment, fluid pouring out of the bellhousing...
Take the trans out, converter is cracked in a sprial all on the snout to the base...
Packed everything up to be sent out... Builder says he'll take care of it all... UPS loses the box with the trans and converter, they find it several days later.
Now, the trans is supposidly fixed, the issue was a broken pump, but I am being told that I must pay for frieght to and from my place which I didnt agree to.
So I'm at an impass... I am sick and tired of this car... I am contemplating taking it all out of it and driving it as stock or selling it... I havent raced all year and am really getting tired of it.
Thanks for taking a look...
