update: the tranny swap is finally done, however the car would idle or run, it also had a surge like idle. Not only was the diverter valve leaking but Turns out it was shot, luckily i had a spare. Now the throttle cable is too shot, and somewhere along the line my door handle broke off. SO one thing off the list 3 more added to it, I also picked up anew bumper on sunday, so I will be moving the inter cooler back and replacing the bumper with a non cut up one. ---
