    Damn I wish these cars had the 6 speed auto trannys and not the stupid four speed crap.

    The car is done and will be picked up soon. The interior needs to be put back in when it makes it home.

    Dale the transmission cross
    member from the factory had a ton of flex in it.

    That's strange? I understand it is a tight fit, and difficult to remove ... I wonder if it is a "press fit" to make the frame stiffer? It's large, and all boxed - was it just flexing at the trans mount area?
