RE: NEW gears installed
ORIGINAL: 95vertGTS
My pinion has been at the machine shop all day waiting to get the bearing pressed on, and won't be done till tomorrow.[sm=boosign.gif]
no car for 2 days and not being able to do friday night drags with my girl FTL.
Thats crazy. I went to a shop on a saturday. the guy pressed my pinion bearing on the spot for $5.

Nice set of time times(over looks the 15
)! gawd it feels wierd to just look at my car and not drive it. Heh I may just have to patch it together enough to pass tech and make one final night of runs before it is down for the overhaul. At least if I break the motor or tranny I can still get to work
