Finally got around to replacing the trans in the Frankenbonne.

Ended up being a snapped input shaft :evil: too much powa i suppose lol.

Time to get this thing to the track and see what she's really capable of now :twisted:

What mods does it have to the engine?

It's got to run pretty good, I think those cars are quite a bit lighter then the newer ones. Bring it up to the Michigan Meet for everyone to check it out :)

Knowing what I know now, this is what I would have done to my old '88 SSE. That car's engine was a pig for some reason.

I love these SSE's in white - looks and performs awesome!
