So let me start by saying I understand why we are staying home, blah.... Past that. Yall should get a laugh out of this.

My kids like most are home and driving me crazy, so after school work is done I send them out to clean up the shop, mostly to get them out of the house while I'm on teleconference. So my exact words are..... "Stop talking, don't ask me anymore questions and go clean every surface in the shop". ....me: total forgetting I'm trying for the first time to rebuild an automatic transmission in my camaro,and have all the parts layed out across the back work bench in the order I pulled them.......

Three hours later the boys come in saying the shop is perfect.... Well it is perfectly clean.... Along with all the parts in one bucket.

Decided to replace the AC compressor/Drier, Orifice tube and flush all the lines. I started that before the stay-at-home (I didn't go out anyway! ) So far the car is in the same state as I took it apart when this all began. So much for all the time in the world!

So stop complaining, you have plenty of time to figure out that parts puzzle!

I thought about that too, but then id have converters sitting around, plus people give the 60 a bad rep. But I'm proof of that they can hold some big horsepower.
