It's going in...
 
Took Epic to the shop after work today with the tranny, the converter, and a big box of tranny fluid and it's all going together in the next few days. The shop (which I've been dealing with for many years now) says it shoul dbe done at lastest Wednsday if not tomorrow.

And yes, once she's home - pics will come. Gota show off the halos and the MSD 6AL too ;)

nice gman nice
how hard was the 6al to install

MeenZ28 02-27-2007 01:07 AM

The box was cake to install. The wireing was simple as long as you have the MSD to 96 and later GM harness. Otherwise you have to hard wire everything in which I wasn't too fond of doing. Hardest part was figureing out where to mount the box so you have enough wire to reach everything.

Epic lives!!

Sinister95Z 02-27-2007 08:32 PM

So...How does she feel? I'm excited to hear how epic behaves with the new equipment.

Bernotas05 02-27-2007 10:14 PM

**** yea man, Sweet Epic should be the to drive with the new stall and all.

blue89vert 02-27-2007 10:21 PM

sick!

MeenZ28 02-28-2007 12:12 AM

Gawd damn! She feels like a new beast! The stall is just right for my driving. The shifts are smooth when going easy but got some punch at WOT. The shift kit makes it nice being able to move the gears at any RPM too. Plus with the ignition control it really woke her up. The throtle is so quick to react now. I love it. It's funny, i didnt get too much time with her after the headers went in since she broke on me very soon after that but I have goten a real ear full now too. Like a real muscle car. Epic is awsome! I'd have pics but the storm just rolled in.... in fact - while i was driving. Nothing quite like breaking in a new tranny like driving top down in the rain. Going to towel the interior down now. LOL

Pics will come. I promise.

Bernotas05 02-28-2007 12:30 AM

Sweet man, rain blows though.

Mike Jones 02-28-2007 12:46 AM

Congrats, I can't even imagine how good it must feel after so many problems and so long without her.

paarman97maro 02-28-2007 01:18 AM

thats awesome... Cant wait to get my gears now haha.

rice burner 02-28-2007 10:08 AM

i'm happy to hear u got her goin!

FORCE_FED_Z 02-28-2007 08:48 PM

Thats great news Grant- I'm sure it must feel great to be able to drive it again after so long..

97z2801ss 02-28-2007 10:30 PM

flippin grant
glad shes up n running!

MeenZ28 03-01-2007 04:36 AM

Yah it feels awsome. But that misfire thing is buggin the crap outa me. I fell like I'm losing a chit load of power because of it. Epic feels kinda lathargic if you get my drift. Plus the welds on the passenger side exaust (the little piece that BBK supiles with the shorties) brok free so it's rattleing like a mofo. Well at least she's running. Ill take monday and tuesday to look at it all (great way to spend a vacation....)

97z2801ss 03-01-2007 10:09 AM

I agree haha
good deal though atleast she moves!!!

SOMBirdV6 03-01-2007 11:06 AM

MeenZ28 03-02-2007 12:28 AM

Yah I love coming from a stop light, bearly pushing it over 2 grand and with the headers sounding like the world is coming to an end. It's beautiful.
