After two whole weekends, my son and I were finally able to get the new transmission into the Roadrunner. I've definitely realized I am too damn old to be swapping transmissions on a driveway!!! I got up this morning and needed three BC powders to get the strength to get my *** out of bed and into work.
On the plus side, the new transmission with the Mancini Racing valve body and shift kit is a thing of beauty to drive. It's amazing how much better the new trans feels compared to the stock worn-out one from the doner car.
And on the pluser side, I paid $500 for the trans, $100 in gas to get it, and once I sell the 2,500 converter that came with it, the tailshaft, dipstick, and the housing, I figure I'll make about $100 off the deal.
