Sure Gary, but I'm not cheap :lol:

It's not that bad, yeah it looks crowded in there and can be at times, but i've had to replace motors in 2 different Cadillac's those are a PITA, if you think our wiring harness is bad, both of them it was probably double :roll:

If you just take your time and mark everything and take lots of pictures, it's a cake walk.
Man I just can't wait to do a boost launch, I'm going through with drawls right now :rant:
I haven't been able to launch this thing since July, my luck i'll finally get it back together and the first launch it will be new tranny time :squint:
Oh well 4L80E here we come, remember breaking stuff just gives you excuses to make it fatser and making it faster helps you find all the weak spots :tup:
