Yes, it is nasty isn't it. Sounds like a pissed off machine for sure.

Ordered a MGW shifter. Hoping it will alleviate some of the minor 1st to 2nd problems and major 2nd to 3rd problems.

Nothing like taking off fast from a light onto a service road only to have to wait for the transmission to accept the fact that you want to put it into 3rd gear.

You mean your stock shifter right? MGW is way to go.

Yeah. Sorry, I should've clarified. The stock shifter is terrible.

IMO, best out there. I absolutely love my MGW. It transformed the car.




Today I drive it to work for the first time this year, and gave a few friends a ride in it after hearing my new borla setup. Everyone thought it sounded spectacular...much better than any other setup they've heard. Thanks borla.

After that, took 1/2 day from work, then washed Marilyn in prep for detailing session tomorrow.

Air Force. Actually a few Camaros running around here too, but more Mustangs.

Got the DSS d/s in, I don't feel anything up to about 100, and only minor something then. Had it up to 110 with no issues.
I didn't cruise at those speeds since it was just a quick spurt there, relax a bit, then quickly back down to sane speeds.

The biggest difference I feel after the work done today is in the shifting.
After a few minutes of driving I started noticing that when I put the shifter into a gear it feels like a little cushion is there now, that wasn't there before.
It feels "cushier" ... lol
I like it, it changed the shifting feel quite a bit.

I'd highly recommend this trans fluid to every MT82 owner out there ...

I took samples of the 5,000-mile Amsoil 10W40 XL from the engine, and the rear-diff fluid which is kinda gray.
I can't wait to see what Blackstone Labs has to say about these fluids ...
