Re: [BaadAssGremlins] Re: Busted tranny

[Davis Martin <martin-davis@xxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

This happened on Tuesday at the dyno session. I had a vibration in the car from the first day I took it for a ride but I thought the rear street wheels were out of balance causing it. So for the dyno runs I swapped on my slicks that I know are balanced. The first pull which I videoed was nice and smooth and went to 7000 RPMs . But the HP was way low it is about 80-100 HP low. So we made some timming adjustments and it came up 20 HP but still no where near what it should be. SO when I looked under the car I found the prolem. I cracked a beer and said OK time to trailer her.

  Wed after work I got the tranny out and brought it to the tranny shop. Turns out I made the driveshaft 1.5" too short. The tranny was fixed anbd I picked it up after work thursday. Thursday night I put it back in the car with Bill's help and figured the correct driveshaft length. 33.25" center to center. Friday after work I droped the shaft off to CT driveshaft to have a new one made up. 250.00 It should be done monday after work.

 SO I hope to get back to the dyno next week.
