              Are you kidding me? You didn't pay or give Gary anything? That is ridiculous! If there is more to the story...please explain.

                                I still don't really get why you didn't finish it? What made you decide to spend MORE money to rebuild a stock motor than buying a new TQ converter and/or flexplate? You could have ran lowboost and never had to worry about breaking anything but you woulda been faster than 17secs...especially since the project was done...

                                At first I did it for fun, then I realized I made the investment and had to do it!

                                  My thoughts exactly, having someone rebuild your stock motor is going to cost way more and be way more involved than a flywheel and tq converter.

                                          Bump. Is this car turbo yet?

                                          At first I did it for fun, then I realized I made the investment and had to do it!
