Finally blew my transmission. It got really loud and started grinding. Now I’ve gotta find a rebuilt or junkyard transmission until next year. Who knows a yard around here with a fox body or two laying around? ---

Which is why I’m upgrading from that blown t-5 to a TKO next year. I don’t want to spend the money now though, I’m trying to buy a house, which is tough with the situation we’re in. Don’t have any of my own pics, only a few from the previous owner. It’s got Edelbrock heads and intake, turbo cam, Garrett T3/t4s, a bunch of other stuff. The tranny was going to be the next upgrade anyways. Edit: And who knows if it’s actually 600 ft/lbs, this is what the previous owner told me. I’ve yet to have it dyno’d. ---

I’m on the thought that the prev. owner was twising the numbers a bit. In the original ad for the car the numbers were 420/420, but when I talked to him six months later to see if he had the car, he mentioned 450/600. If I had to guess, I’d say it’s probably not that high, because it’s still only a 302. Anyways, still haven’t found a cheap T5. ---
