Come on! The GN says "cool", the Porsche says "mid-life crisis". :biggrin:

 

[V6UnderPressure]

Any rust one the car?

 

[2swoosh]

Not a chick car:

is that a 79 930?

 

[sr71gn]

are those scratches in the side of the car-- like key marks?--how does the car run --how is the interior--any track times? what is trans problem? --im interested but i need the facts

 

[howdies86]

need more info.call me @260-726-9876 or email me @mrgees@bright.net.Could you also send the vin.?

 

[howdies86]

forgot to give you my cell,260-726-9876.Also need interior pics,body condition,trans ok to drive?

 

[ineil]

No key marks, those are shadows. The engine runs great, just had it tuned real nice by Vernons in Laurel. Paint is OK, not show quality, but no rust. Does have scratches, but not real bad. VIN# 1G4GJ1175HP429470
I have original sticker.

Trans makes grinding sound when decelerating. Not sure what is wrong, it's a brand new trans and converter. If I end up getting it fixed in the next few weeks the price goes up to about $15,000.
Last run at the track was a few years ago with 40Lb injectors and TE44 turbo, ran a 11.54.

I have been driving down my street after making adjustments to the trans. Runs like a rocket, but really needs to have a trans profession find out why the new trans and converter are making that noise.

I found a new porsche I am thinking about 87 911

Man When I thought I had a deal uying my T-type for $9k then you put this out there.....

 

[sr71gn]

what is a raptor stage 2 trans-- if its new wont they fix it?

 

[sr71gn]

does it have an original gn valve body?

 

[ineil]

Raptor level 2 can be found here:
200-4R Raptor Transmission from PATC, 200-4R

Original GM valve body.


Return for repair?
Not sure if it's the trans or how it was installed. They will fix it, but I have to uninstall, package and ship it back. It would be much easier to just get it fixed.

OK, here are pics form today. I have obviously made some changes over the past year or so:
