It's Alive!!!!! The Black Widow is back again.



It is kickass.  I will be needing new new tires soon again with all this new
torque.  You built a nice trans.  The 0.80 was not as low as I thought it
would be but is still very nice.

I still chasing an oil leak that I have somewhere on the right side
(passenger).  Ben thinks it might be the crank seal, dammmm  as those were
all new when I rebuilt last year.
