LOl I can drive any standard from Tractor Tailer, to ecnos.. Dont much bother me since I'd rather have the standard anywho, just plain more fun hahahaha....Originally posted by robertisaar View PostComment

the 282 has been proven to take well over 400 HP/400 TQ un-modded in a jbody, it's weakness is high RPM shifts (6500 and above) and the 3rd gear syncro.
So, if you don't grind 3rd and shift at or around 6500 the HM282 should hold up well. You are in a heavier car so axles might be an issue...Comment

this sounds like good news for me as well. if the F40 won't hold what i'm planning, then the 282 defintiely will...Originally posted by Superdave View Post
any fix for the 3rd gear synchro? or was that saying: "stock the synchro sucks, but aftermarket works"?Comment

this is an awesome thread...Comment

yes, there is an aftermarket 3rd gear syncro that is better.. it's been several years since i've seen where to get it though.
a complete rebuild of a 282 and a LSD would be pretty close to bullet proof. Mine has 142K, all stock with a team green LSD and handles 4K rpm launches on slicks at over 300 HP. Shifts like the day it came off the lot.Comment

team green? i've read that was junk... at least compared to the EP....
did i hear/read wrong?Comment

i'm guessing thats you dave?
<---loves the exhaust, that is a True Dual setup? it sounds almost like my monte when i pull the vacuum line off for the brake booster.... it looks like i'm going to have to do some exhaust fab work when i have the money...
i've seen the install pics for the TG now. is it possible to even break it? it looks like the only thing that can even wear down is the springs. for $~200 it seems like a steal.Comment

at least i'm not the only one who considered itOriginally posted by RedZMonte View Post
just have to adapt to the northstar bellhousing. not sure about axles though...Comment

Yah, that's me. ARUR + 36lb injectors = cold weather fail. With BFUZ it fires off instantly.Originally posted by robertisaar View Post
yes, true duals in that clip.. it now has an X pipe so the idle is a little deeper and alot less rasp.
BTW, i'm pretty sure the N* shares the same bellhousing as us...

similar but not the same...

Hmm thats news to me to i was under the thought that it was the same as the V6 bell housing.. either way, if you want to go auto and hold more power then you can throw at it, the 4T80 is the way to go.... Or spends allot of $$ and build a 4T65-e HD (GTP trans....)
