No, seriously its running good. Somebody competant put it together and theres no issues anymore.
Sure a stock t5 wont last forever but its holding up. The tranny is probably the only weak point in the car now since the motor and rear are new.

Those are the only Chevy’s Id buy. Ive always wanted a '78-80 Monte Carlo and was pissed my uncle crushed the one he had at his junkyard when I was 16. He didnt think I seriously wanted it.
I love the new Vettes. Ill never be able to afford one but I guess I can dream a bit.
Ive learned my lessons with Chevy trucks although it took me 3 of them.

just dont put real sticky tires and the tranny will hold for awhile.

Ive gotta use the MT DR’s because the street tires just spin.
Realistically the tranny is fine right now but I dont know how much it can take. I bought it used in PA a few years ago and dont know its history.

I lived in Tampa for many years, I saw wayyyy to many stupid accidents because of rain… and of course not because of rain like an unfortunate road worker get hit by a car and killed because they drive like asshole’s through work zones…I got very frustrated with driving down there though I love the better speed limits and road conditions just couldnt believe some of the driving. I am not saying drivers are better here but most people can drive in the rain.This whole statement excludes NYC.
I am from down there and from my experience up here people don’t know what the hell they are doing in the rain here… People in Fl and the Tampa bay area are very very well adapted to driving in rainy conditions considering we drive in them almost as much as we drive in dry conditions… I would love to watch an Albany Native try to drive through a hurricane without getting in an accident… the majority of People up here have not proven to be good drivers in any conditions…
When I drove back home I never even had a close call of an accident…
that’s a pretty dumb reason…
Okay so we agree to disagree:tongue

Does that really fucking surprise you???

On the other hand, I would like to see a native from down there drive in one of our heavy Nor-easters without getting into an accident.
Not to be a dick, just being difficult… lmao.
