I have heard good things about Goerend

I have been thinking of rebuilding my auto tranny. Have you done this before and how hard is it?

no i am a newbie to autos but im going to give it hE11
goerend makes some good products by my expierience
which is limited
one more question
has anyone experimented with duel crossover pipes
i was thinking the crossover is further back towards 456 cylinders i cut out a plate and centered a pipe on 123 and 456 cylinders. then i am going to make a y-pipe to the intercooler pipe.. do you think this would spread the air out better. IT MY HAVE ALREADY BEEN DONE.

Yep, he's got a banks twin ram intake on it. Had to have new lines bent for it, who did it I don't remember.
