It's totally theoretical, but there is an all time worst. I saw this one at work, came in for warranty analysis. The converter had welded shut plates, the input shaft had to be pounded out with a hammer, broke a tool taking the pump out, the solenoid and filter were melted (it finally died when the filter melted and cut off the fluid flow) and not one good part in the box, the case was warped from heat, the tech (I didn't do this one) had trouble getting some of the parts out. The tranny came from Manitoba, and our theory is he was out in the middle of the tundra somewhere and had to know it was dying, but the guy WAS NOT GOING TO WALK under any circumstances, so he just kept on driving it. I saw about half a dozen things that should have killed it, but until the molten filter fell out of the pump it just kept on turning the wheels. It hurt to look at it.

Sauvy, it's back and ready whenever you want ot come get it, dynoed great! I also picked up another one I dropped off on Friday and dropped his street converter, I didn't have another one here so I popped a Total Domination Converter in it, he got a real bargain on the converter, but it was already late shipping so....

Greg, I'm working all this week and weekend, but am looking at sending my Wife and my Son to pick it up. E-mail me at my work e-mail address and let me know where and when. Hopefully Friday or Saturday?
