Alright no car problems is a plus Nancy. Looks like I might need to replace a voltage regulator. I'm not charging my battery for some reason. Just another electrical issue I seem to be dealing with on this car.

Got the driver's door open! I have been having an issue with the latch assembly. Haven't been able to pop it open for months. On a whim, I gave it a shot and it unlocked first try. I had just gotten home from work and the idea popped into my head to try it. I have a good used latch I am going to replace it with later today.

Nothing today, have to get brave and pull her out to see what damage, if any, I may have done to the trans on my trip to the Ohio show. I have to see cause with the WWDC and the Berkley Parade coming up I need to know.

Been out of town all week so Chevelle is in the garage covered up. Need to figure out why my battery is not getting a charge on Sat and going to a car show on Sunday.

200-4R correct?

What is it doing? I have a bad slip pretty in mine (and it was a Stage 2/billet CK Performance Trans) much through all of 2nd gear and if you apply much more than 1/4 throttle it just revs and slips bad.

I hope Jake's Performance finishes my 4L80E soon!!!! I have to just put around everywhere right now.

Edit: just called and my trans should be shipping out next week.

Should probably have my car running at 100% again before I start ordering things but today I decided I wanted the Dakota Digital VXH gauges in Carbon/Blue along with the trans temperature add-on module. I am having Jake's put a temp port on my 4L80 and I just want to monitor my car's vitals better than can be done with the stock SS gauges. I am not a fan of the 3 gauges under the dash or that would have been the much cheaper & easier way.

My oil pressure gauge is mounted way low where I don't really even see it unless I purposely look. This will put everything where it needs to be in a hopefully accurate cluster. I am still not sure I am 100% sold on the way the gauge faces look but like everything else, hopefully it will grow on me. It took a good bit of debate before I could decide on a color combo but in the end realized I didn't like the look of the silver during the day and the blue would more closely match my Ausley radio text.

Matt's Classic Bowtie said 7-14 days before they ship so hopefully in a few weeks they will be here and I can yet again, tear my dash apart.
