I don't have a tank ( no where to park it) but I do have a Corvette ZF
6-speed behind my C motor. Have you used that 6-speed for LSR John? If
so, what ratios are you using & type/ratio of rear end. If it is none of
my business, I understand ;-) Also, Jon Myer is bringing back the
Sundowner Corvette this speed week & he is also using a 6-speed. I
thought I was the only person crazy enuf to run this tranny..........
