Your motors doing fine isn't it? Yea , you really can't say anything negative or bad about your trans.... It's earned the right to retire I would say

Well I did it this time. slicks, torco, nice cool night... Racing a bad *** 383 camaro, we take off side by side, he lifted the front tire about 3", I hit 2nd gear and it just bounces off the rev limiter, acts like its in neutral, then I hear all kinds of grinding/howling noise, and smell tranny fluid, then it catches back. now it wont go into second hardly, and when it does it SLAMS in gear...

man, you guys (built54 and klitch) are making me want to build my tranny then tackle the engine, but since the engien is in the works allready I guess I won't put it in until the tranny is ready for it...

Joe sorry about your loss, imagine what your truck will do with a good tanny and a transbrake
