How did the damage happen? Doing a pull leaving the frisby golf course. 1st, hit 2nd, get into boost and then it was gear crunching.

Good job, I was always too big of a pussy to take any of my trannies apart

I was the same way until this one broke. This was the more cost effective option so I went for it. So far it seems successfull.

Well, now that I lost my job, I have much more time to tinker with the Gaylant. Finally mounted the DSM ecu up where it should be in the Galant, ran the release cables for the trunk and the fuel door, also stole the latch off my Talon so now the fuel door is on. I took the stupid lawn mower battery out and put a real one in the trunk with all the stuff from the Talon. Bolted down the battery box, ran the cables. Fixed the non-working reverse lights.

Took a couple pics:





Engine bay is much easier to work in now. Also safer without the battery up there.

I was bored, so I painted the chrome trim around the 92-93 tail lights to black. I think it looks better than the chrome:

Yay, more pics.





Went for an 80 mile drive yesterday with a couple friends. Car behaved like it should. Made some mudflaps for it Saturday and they worked well too. I have to trim the rears though, the suspension really settled a lot. Transmission is still holding up. I suppose if it were to break, it would've already. I was surprised it didn't break when I used the Galant to pull the Talon shell onto the trailer yesterday so we could take it to a new spot.

I bought myself a different intercooler from a friend of mine. It's about 28in wide, 10.5in tall, and 3.5in thick garret core. It was off his low 10 second 90 Talon, put down a little over 700 something to the wheels. I was very lucky as I didn't have to cut anything to get it to fit. Only had to drill two holes to mount it.



Only real issue is both the inlet and outlet are 3in in diameter, but the couplers solved that. Put it together, test drove it and it pulled harder than it ever has at 22 psi with that on it. When boost hits, I actually get planted in my seat.
