[QUOTE="2bscrewed, post: 11212405, member: 15222"] I got the leaky seal issue fixed by shortening the DS a little more. I went from 1/2" of travel to a full 1" of travel, and it hasn't leaked since. On a sad note. I have an unfortunate update. I went to the track for the first time even though my converter was waaay too tight, just to see how it would do. I turned my boost down on my street pump/meth tune from 23#'s to 20#'s and added some 110 just for safety and made a couple partial passes and checked my logs to make sure everything was looking good. I don't have a trans brake and could only foot brake the converter to about 2200 rpm, so needles to say it was a total dog out of the hole. 2.0 60's to be exact. after the first couple hits I went up for another one, and after my burnout i tried to stage and the car acted like it was in neutral for a couple seconds, then engaged and made the pass fine. (a terrible 11.10 @ 136 with a 2.0 60'). I checked my fluid level and it was perfect. so Like a dumbass I thought it was just a fluky thing and went to make another pass, and this time I didn't even make it to the water box before it acted like it was in neutral again, but this time never came back. After trailering the car back to my friends shop and dropping the pan, I found the problem. Here is the dip stick I had gotten using the part number from one of the swap threads on the forums. [ATTACH=full]252025[/ATTACH] Here is the one out of my friends car that I slid in to compare. [ATTACH=full]252026[/ATTACH] here they are laying beside each other. [ATTACH=full]252027[/ATTACH] I didn't take the pan off when I got the tranny to check the dip stick. I keep learning lessons the expensive hard way. Hopefully I can save someone else by posting my stupidity up here. [/QUOTE]
