Mattndew76 Posted December 30, 2021 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2021 (edited) nope. Truck popped a fan fuse, and I ordered a new ignition cylinder. The tractor style one that was in this thing has to go. Edited December 31, 2021 by Mattndew76 Quote Link to comment
Mattndew76 Posted December 31, 2021 Author Report Share Posted December 31, 2021 I might have to install a manual OD cable kit to get this C6 to shift into OD. I can ratchet shit 1st to 2nd but once I ratchet into D it bounces back to 1st. Low on ATF maybe? or Air in the AT hydro system. Quote Link to comment
Mattndew76 Posted January 1, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 1, 2022 Found my issue with the lack of shifting in the D position. I smacked the dual diaphragm module when installing the engine and trans. it’s bent. Quote Link to comment

Mattndew76 Posted January 6, 2022 Author Report Share Posted January 6, 2022 Put 60 miles on the pappy today. Noticed a bit of vibration in the front passenger area. I am pretty sure I have a dead strut. Maybe getting some wheel hop at 35mph as a result. 2 Quote Link to comment

Lockleaf Posted April 13, 2022 Report Share Posted April 13, 2022 Well thank you but you will note high levels of precision arent my specialty. I admire those who can work in thousandths or better. Quote Link to comment

It would make plenty of power... 😄 1 Quote Link to comment
