I like a stick in my civic becauase its slow and it feels "quick" when I abuse the ---- out of it. The chevelle is a competely different feeling. Its a "hold the ---- on" and keep it on the road feeling. Its hard to explain. I prefer a manually shifted auto in this chevelle vs a standard.

I'd let you drive the car to get the feeling but thats a fair jont to do so;)

Oh ok I see I thought it was just a stock auto trans. I kinda know what you mean, those motors have a ton of tq. Even in a big truck like a yukon it still pulls hard. I would LOVE to drive your Chevelle >:D, but you are just a bit fat Canada :-X. Well if I ever plan a trip to Canada I will hit you up for sure. :y

The cool thing is right now the tranny is stock. Its all in the ecu tune that I had done. Even more tranny tuning will be done, along with a 2800 stall and shift kit next winter. At the switch of a button I can go from mild shifting manners to full line pressure, hard shifts. Computers and auto tranny's are pretty cool these days.

coped out the bumper for the intercooler outlets/inlets to allow for some wiggle room. Have to move my PS cooler so I will do that tomorrow and make some mounts for it. And just another shot of the hot side.
