Well the car WAS up and running and feels very very strong. The tune is safe for now but just not a smooth 11.5. It will go a tad leaner and richer here and there but is safe for now. The dsmlink HP estimator said 508 hp or so, I wonder how close they actually are. Did a nice 1-4th gear pull and the stock tranny disagreed with that and lost a few teeth on some gears.
Thanks to SHEP and their friendly staff I was able to get a trans built and it will be here Monday. Happy B day to me since that is my Birthday as well!
I got a stage 4 with evo 1st gear upgrade, all new shafts, and cant wait to put it in. I will be able to make it to the cookout after all

.
Im bead blasting my transfer case to match my brand new tranny and will be putting everything back together with clean hands so nothing gets dirty. If anyone has a bad 2g awd tranny let me know because I need to send another one into shep since some of the parts on my core were bad and need to get him a good core.
More pictures and updates to come.
