No epic parts fail but I went through a corner in the city and got impatient with another driver.  I gunned it and the engine with new rear axle I heard a pop.  I did not think of it but I kept getting smoke a little at the side of the car.  I went onto the highway and during acceration it looked like a James Bond smoke screen.

I'm sorry darling but that was me you just shifted into 3rd! I’m afraid more than just the transmission is blown at this point!

Been there done that! With the “69”! That what we refer to as a ahh Sh- -t moment!

800km on the Tremec and I have noticed a couple things.  First is that the 4th gear has a little whine to it but it seems to be common with everyone I talk to.  The gear splits are nice and smooth and my little small block really likes 2nd gear. The last thing is that the trans may require a shorter mount as it does push the driveshaft up in the tunnel.
