No Gripes hear I knew the possibility of driveline failure and I am willing to except that responsability if The power adder created the problem.
I also know that there are alot of blown camaro's that have been flogged by guys at the track with Gummy's etc (Hennesy and lingy)
That I have not done.
I have not done any Launches in the car or Burn outs. Didn't need to Think hooks and goes I just find it a little suspisous Given that Hennesy and lingy are pumping up the boost and Flogging them on a regular basis and I haven't heard of any issues from them.
Besides I have cars that I love doing burn outs in...the thing I like about the New camaro's ( I Guess There are many but) is they hook up so well. No need to dump the clutch just let the clutch out easy and stand on it and go. Love the G's..
Not Complaining...Still love my car and I have always known youi gotta pay to play. No worries, I have blown, motors,trannys,and rear ends for a lot of years now. Just nuts and bolts it will get fixed. Just thought I would let everyone know so they can make informed decisions on their mods etc.
I still do believe that the tranny should have held up.
If I would have been launching or doing burn outs it would have been different....I do believe there is a heat treating problem somewhere.
Like I mentioned before the guy that bought his car after mine who has no mods was at the dealer today with his tranny blown.
There is a real problem there somewhere.
Anyway, life goes on for me. I will just get my Blown 80 Z28 out and go hammer that for a while, which by the way has the original tranny and rearend holding 600HP and has since I bought it new 30 years ago ( Turbo 350)
Even With More Tire I might add...
If that one goes I have several more options to choose from. Been building cars for years.
I will still miss my 2010 though. I really love it and wouldn't change a thing. As soon as I get it back we will try it out for real next time. If it goes than....
It will be time to start shopping for a tranny that will hold up cause that power adder ain't comin off!
