So I "finished" my wagon about this time last year. 5.3 turbo/4l80e combo. Had a lot of fun for a year but the car was running low 11s and needed a cage.

Hey guys, so I've got a weird issue. I'm completely new to the Ford 9inch and just installed a new one from Quick Performance into my 79 Malibu Wagon. Car is an turbo LS and 4l80e swap in progress. Put together the rear end like it should be (according to everything I found online anyway) but...
