There were 4 of us Dan, Kevin, abnormal and I. A buddy of mine said a black and yellow S were at the shop on base so I went in to check it out. Then Kevin came later as well. Nice to finally meet some of the other guys with Ss on base

Yea besides the fact that it felt like our spines were going to shatter, it was an interesting and very educational day. Although we didnt get to finish it, I know what to expect when i drop the tranny AGAIN in a few weeks to swap it out with an AP2.

I need a hand from 3-6 this tuesday to help me throw it back in the car so i have something to drive. It NEEDS TO GET DONE, otherwise i'm kinda effed. The more the merrier, it would be very appreciated.

Glad i met Dan and SL racer (sry broseph forgot your name) today. I look forward to some more meets with you guys! Thanks for the help today!!! (*remember, i need help tuesday )

Thanks Kyle!! I would love the help so i can get it finished on tuesday. I really hope Dan is able to come out again, he helped take it apart so im hoping he can assist putting it back together. Stabilizing the tranny and throwing it back up is going to be a pain. BTW my name is P.J.

Yea I would say the battle begins now. Stabbing the tranny is no fun. Take
It the clutch and flywheel are already bolted and torqued down? Hopefully you have the alternator bolt being held ready to tighten in cuz that's a pain! Lol

Its the same as the AP1 tranny if you can get this one in then the AP2 wont be any problem at all. I hope you are joking though sir about the half assed assembly unless you arent driving it. Good luck!

What i mean by half assed is the the top starter bolt im going to not install until the new tranny goes is in a few weeks. And the reason im doing the clutch now is because my old 6 puck had Zero material and i can barely even get to work so it needed to get done.

i know all i need to do is swap output shafts on the trannys, i just need a couple extra sets of hands to accelerate and ease the process as my lower back is EFFED
