sorry about the trans being low, thats kinda my fault. You have to check it when its running and warm. When Matt and i took the front of the engine off to check for possible damper issues, we started it briefly without the radiator in the car, and the trans lines were going no where, so it barfed a bit of trans fluid everywhere, hence the shortage.
good to hear its up and running again!

Ok I'll check that after I get the plates. And no worries about the trans, I'd just chalk it up to me being an auto trans noob. I drive manuals almost exclusively and I hardly ever check the trans fluid. No reason to unless something is wrong. With autos it seems you have to check it lol. I checked it when my buddy said check it and the car was running at the time had been running for some time too. I had it running while doing the timing and burping the cooling system. Had no leaks, no wild temp fluctuations, nothing to indicate a problem at all, oil pressure was good and steady, naturally changes when you push the RPMs up. But I don't see any reason to keep me from driving it whenever I want. Before I do that though, I'm having the local mechanic get that exhaust on for me and the vac leaks, I'll have him double check the trans fluid too make sure I didn't overfill it. Doesn't look like I did. But so far I'm impressed LOL. I'll have it at a meet soon enough, maybe I'll have it at the island meet if there is one there again.
