Been a lot of phone calls, etc and in fact I UPS'd my starter to them to verify fitment. My big issue was how in the hell I am going to mount a starter on the transaxle that doesn't hang way below the car (an inverted VW/Porsche bellhousing puts the starter at 6 o'clock on my car and means I would be dragging the solenoid on the ground).
Then they had this puppy left in stock - apparently they only made a couple of them (IMG:style_emoticons/default/cool_shades.gif) just moves the starter to the other side of what I have. ![]() sssooooo, the sequential dog geared monster transaxle just might be a go for me!! (IMG:style_emoticons/default/clap56.gif) Laid under the car last night to make sure it looks like it will work, and this thing might be "money"! He is going to take some pix with my starter installed today as a final verification - if it all looks good then "it's on". My current setup... notice starter should just move to the drivers side but remain parallel to ground ![]() I'm sorta gloating I know... but I have literally talked to them for 4 yrs now on and off waiting for them to get an LSD setup that I liked, etc etc and this trans apparently is using the same LSD style as the Vipers and so forth. Don't even ask price... OMFG am I gonna pay for this one for awhile (IMG:style_emoticons/default/icon8.gif) but will look like this smiley the whole time I am driving it (notice only pulls shifter in one direction, no mo' H crap) (IMG:style_emoticons/default/MDB2.gif) And got my new Excellence last night - the same day I got the pic above - and page 161 = Going Sequential (IMG:style_emoticons/default/aktion035.gif) It's a sign from God hhahaha (IMG:style_emoticons/default/laugh.gif) |

get the lotion.... IIIIIITTTTTT'S HHHHEEERRRREEEEE (IMG:style_emoticons/default/w00t.gif)
My mom picked it up last Friday in Lakeside (San Diego area) and drove it out here on Monday since she was laid off a couple months ago and figured if I paid the gas, it was a free trip - left at 6AM to have two easy days of driving but ended up just doing it in 15 hrs and getting here at 10pm (1 hr time diff, don't question the math hahahah). My friend swung by tonight with a cart he uses for his welder so we could get it in the garage - after my knee surgery I can't squat to get it on the ground but can lean over to get it on the cart (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) 'Course they never build them "upside down" but just for me and a couple other road racers over the years, so they forgot to relocate the drain plug and breather fitting :dry: which I ain't sure how you could just "see" the issue since it was the first thing I saw, but turns out I can probably just use the orig drain plug for the vent and a couple plugs they put in it on top as the drains, so it will all work out. I was gonna be pissed if I had to send it back with mom, and my mom was not excited about that at all either. And Kennedy sent the wrong flywheel (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pinch.gif) so that will have to go back. Nonetheless, it's here and I am pretty stoked to finally have it. Little shaky, but close enuf for now (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif) ![]() |
