    just got back from the tranny shop, the tranny is SAVED!!!! the only thing that broke was the input drum (i think thats what it is called). its the cup looking thing were the inner shaft goes into.... his opinion was that this usually happens when you have alot of power and you dont have the right suspension, he says that the shaft will start vibrating a little until enough power makes it break... I dont know if this is true?? but he said his turbo'd 6.0 did the same, and after he did all his rear suspension, he has never had a problem with it??? he said the truck might be ready to pick up tomorrow morning, he told me to take it to the track tomorrow since he is also wondering what the truck will do... I might have to go for a couple of runs...

    dont know whenever I go pick up the truck, Im going to check it out, if I remember right he said the guy that did it for him charged him about &#036;700 for it installed... and he said it is a world of a difference, no traction problems either, his best run is a 12.4 back in august, ECSB 6.0 w/turbo, and I might be wrong but he was on 22&#39;s...
