Pic's of my PPG tranny (Part 2) Installed!!
Hey guys. Picked the tranny up today. Looks good and shifts unbelievably fast. If I don't make it to the track this weekend (pending rain), I'll hit it on Friday prior to the race on Sunday at MIR for Imports vs. Domestics.

Ernie.
Would have been nice to see the design of the main/output shaft.
It seems to be of a two piece design. Can you confirmed that?

Whats up fool?! Where you been? The stock tranny sucks for torque over 500lbs. 3rd gear will destroy itself as well as the output shaft snapping, which I've already done. I didn't want to replace the tranny all the time so this was one of my few options.
