    Finally got around to to test fitting the 6R


    Modified the shift lever I bought for the 6R from PBH to work with the Marauder cable
    (this was my first time ever welding, it will get better)

    And took the measurements for the new driveshaft.

    MTX. With quaife limited slip. Originally from California, actually a SHO Shop car. Still rust free. They're getting scarce around here too, the ones that are left are usually beat.

    Very nice, I always loved my SHO's. They just got too expensive to maintain. I don't know if I will ever finish my 93 project car, if I trash it do you need any parts?


    SHO Shop and I had some major issues, they were at one time and amazing company... I'm glad they aren't around to screw anyone else over.

    I have almost a complete second car worth of parts. I don't drive mine enough for it to break anything. Maybe I'll finally do my motor mounts and drive it this year. I want to see if it can keep up with the marauder.

    I never personally dealt with the SHO shop, the cars previous owner had it built. Sorry you had a bad experience with them.

    How far have you gotten with doing a turbo? I thought about changing my car to a turbo. The Vortec is really loud at idle and makes it less of a sleeper.

    LOL!!! Could have been an AMC Hornet with a 401 stuffed into it for all we know! Someone forgot to mix the sand with the asphalt compound for sure.

    LED Conversion

    Had a poor experience several years back with a LED conversion on my 2008 Triumph Sprint ST motorcycle with projector lamps. H7 (single element) Halogens standard with two outboard lowbeams and center highbeam. Stock lowbeam decent and useless highbeam - poor projector design.

    LEDs made it worse due to differences in the length of the bulbs. Reverted to H7 halogens and received a partial refund. Rode a mid '80s Goldwing (reflector) at about the same time with a H4 (dual element) LED bulb installed - horrible lighting for many of the same reasons - nice and bright though. Owner thought it was an improvement - pathetic self denial.
