Default Trip to brenspeed planned for the 17th

I ordered a deep transmission pan for my car. It's not lowered so I think it should be ok as far as hitting bc I know it hangs kind of low. I'm also thinking about getting a fluidyne radiator installed. I think these mods will help keep the car running better and add some longevity to the motor and tranny.

I do race a bit at the track. But I plan on getting more involved this years bracket racing. The races r 1/8 mile so a bit less beating on the car. Maybe two or three times a year. I know one day that the motor may give in or the tranny but hopefully not.

Good job, I have one too. I am not lowered as well and other than going slow over speed bumps clearence is not an issue. Did you already get the trans catch can? That's definitely a must.

Congrats! We have similar ways of thinking. I look for stuff to do to help support the longevity of the motor/tranny.

Yep the catch can is in but I still want the extra fluid and the ability to check the fluid and change myself without a huge mess. I think I'm done with adding any more horses to the pony.

I certain,y think that these mods are overlooked sometimes but r still very important. Sure they add some weight but I think the positives out weight the negatives.
