well today i replaced the trams gasket, AGAIN, and it still leaks, so imma get a new trans pan because this one is toast. any suggestions on a trans pan?

 

[beermonkey9417]

turns out, i dont need a new trans pan, i just need to to dry for a week . so i fill my elky with transmission fluid and i actually drove it around the block. i was happier than sh*t to finnaly drive it. i still gotta work out some bugs with timing but it runs and drives! YYYYYYYYYYYAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYYYYYYYYY! well yesterday i got a giant(to me) paycheck so, imma take it to my buddys shop and have them square-away the timing and the carb work and make sure i didnt **** something up along the way.
so now someone tell me what to buy before i go and blow 180 bucks on a new pocket rocket!!!





oh yeah and its not "legal" yet, so i gotta get that in order.

Try Jegs. They have an x-pipe set up for pretty cheap. Otherwise any custom muffler shop could make them but it might cost ya! I had my Tahoe done a few years ago and it was just under 5 hundred for dual flowmasters.
