On another note, I got the line lock in the LX tonight, and replaced the leaking frickin fittings on the side of the trans with the correct ones, and now no leaks. Took my wife for a ride in it, Hit it going down the street, it went into all the gears solid and hit the tires hard. I turned onto the straightaway, hit it again, tires started slipping, then hooked. Got to the end of the street and turned around, came up, straightened it out, hit the transbrake, floored it, let go the trans brake and the car hooked and took off. Each shift it dropped the rpms down and the car just pulled like a freight train. I officially call it good! It's fixed.
Good to hear, time to do some racing.

Well, it's official, I hate automatics. The valvebody and transbrake are screwed and might have taken all my new parts with it. Im pulling it out and sending it back and the inspecting all my internal trans parts to make sure nothing is damaged. Sucked, as I was really pumped up to run some good times. It ran like a beast on the street, but the transbrake quit working at the track and then bogged the engine down worse and worse each pass. It got to the point it would kill the engine when it went into gear. One of the few times the brake worked, it only stalled to 2k. So the thing left like a slug. One extreme to another, it sucks.
Rick. It was nice meeting you last night at kk. That little coupe is really going to run when you can make a full pass. I love that blue too. Nice car.

Thanks chad and Jim. I'm going to take it down to Allen and we are going to tear into it and he's going to cut the converter apart. I want to address the trans brake issue in the valve body and get that working, not sure what's up with why it's not. The converter is def shot in it, as it wouldn't rev past 5200, and the C4 revved to 6k+ with no tune changes. And it made 20 more hp as well. I got the power up over 400 rw, and was expecting a really good night. The valve body has been acting up with the button not needing to be pushed for reverse, it went right in without it, then the trans brake stopped working right, I needed to activate the brake with the button to get reverse again, but put it in first and hit the brake, and nothing. Now, it makes a good awful noise in gear and has a stall of 800, yep, 800, give it any fuel and the engine just bogs until it reaches 2000 rpms and then it starts to run decent again. I'm pulling the brake and valve body out and getting a better unit this week.
