Bill the transmission guy is back this Sunday with the valve body, he was saying it needed a ball bearing in some where... but i will find out more detail this weekend and hopefully it works!!!

nice!!!! where off then Fitzy !!! as soon as i get the valve body back for my trans!!!!!🙄

well done mate!!! did you catch the Rat ?

Steph, when you get time start a thread in the "Pontiac progression" part of the forum and keep us up to date with what your doing, we have lots of super cleaver people here who really are great at helping with our pontiac builds, and you will find it ever so helpful

that is so cool and i bet your learning as you go too !...... so did you paint the car or did you get it done by a shop ?

if the trap on top of the air cleaner doesnt work tonight, get a box, cut a 30mm hole in it put your wire trap inside with peanut butter on it and stick it in the fender well . close the hood and see if that works,,,,, rats dont like anything out in the open. ps. rat love silicon !!!! hence him chewing your leads mate! your engine looks sooooo clean!!!!

thank god for that!!! i see a theme going on here....... peanut butter mate!!! they love it.... the f-cker needs to die!!!

Steph. have you done all this work your self?

When you put some txt in the dialogue box you will see below a add files box ... there you can add pics from your phone or computer ... hope that helps 👍

NOW ! you so have to tell us all about the car and how you made it soo cool.... pics would be cool

Steph, welcome. i am super impressed with how you have worked hard to get to where you are, big thank you too your Step dad for helping in those early days to get this car !!!👍 What you will find, is that building cars is not the point. ! It is all about the people you meet and share your passion with along the way !! their is shit loads of us ALL over the planet!!!

The gib board ( your guys call in dry wall) will be here in may!! and that was ordered in December too !! everything is justA sooooo slow now!! Thanks covid and building boom !

mate tell her to buy it and you can stick it in your work shop bathroom👍

Just had Bill the transmission guy here i took him for a drive and sure as, it slips going into 3rd, take your foot out and it moves up to 4th. we adjusted the tv rod 3 times and got a good kick down, and still it slipped going UP into 3rd. when you gun it at 40 mph she ticks down into 3rd good as gold. so it is the up shift thats the issue.THEN i put the car on the hoist and drained the oil!!!! only about 4 litres came out!! now i had put near 11 litres in this trans when i got it back from the rebuild, and it hasn't leaked.... Bill seams to think the coupling isnt draining down like it is supposed too he took the valve body off and went back to his workshop to test it. so i have left a drain tray under the trans an i bet over night that coupling will drain. NOTE: when we took off the pan, clean as inside!! so i had everything in the cooler system clean enough ! once again justA me over thinking shit.

Michael one thing you may want to consider is upgrading that circuit by installing a good quality relay that will take the current draw and use your new switch to control that relay that way you don’t have all that load going through the switch 🍻 as you can see what that current draw has done to the switch over the years 👍

Well done 👍👍 that switch certainly looks sad !
