So I finally get it running...

Take it to PM's. I would replace 4th gear, but all the jb in the world isn't going close off its exit strategy out the transmission, into the ditch lol. I had a Tron like light trail of redline that followed my car for a couple hundred yards. I am aware that making the switch between transmissions isn't a 6 hour afternoon job, but I am confident that I can get it done. Right now it is kind of a crash course in all the misc. info that goes along with the swap and setup. I am not in a rush to get this back up and going, and am contemplating switching to a more sturdy rear end as well. While the car is down though, hopefully the other two cars that do leave at 5:30 AM with loud exhaust take some of the attention off my garage.
