I should clarify. This is for me ATX not my MTX as my MTX does not have diff pins anymore due to a recent upgrade.

upgrade as in removal by a fast spinning motion or by replacing with a more superior diff?

it takes a lot to get motivated to work on this thing. It sure does need a lot of TLC after 3 years of letting it build up.

too bad your not closer id give ya motivation :evilgrin:

glad to see things are finally going on again.. hoping some day i get to actually get a ride in a turbo atx.

hoping to see you at carlise this year?

That work area looks like mine when the SHO is under heavy construction. When I go out there it looks like a war zone and its hard to get stared working again! After I take some time to clean up its a lot easier to get started :)

Any way you need to get this bad boy back on the road. I believe this car can change some minds on going fast with an atx.

I used to be the BIGGEST champion of all things Manual transmission. Heck I built the first V8 MTX. But if you really look at the FAST cars out there ATX is the way to go. Your car proves that.

thanks. I just hope this one will last me a while. i'm sick of replacing these.

edit: I will be at the convention clicking off 12's on street tires at 10psi... so yes if you want to have useable power ATX is the way to go.
