I did mine in the garage with no air tools and just good old fashioned hand
tools and elbow grease. It was a chore. I used a torch and burned out the
rubber and used hammer, chisel and punches to remove the sleeve. I cut one
side of the sleeve with a saw and collapsed the sleeve. It was pretty
thing either. They gave it high marks.

When I switch out the engine to the LS1 I will run a hidden kill switch shutting
off the fuel pump. I will also have a lojack installed so I can get it

I'm pretty happy with my Auburn Pro Series and 4.10
setup. It locks up great and is smooth/quiet. Mine is a 12 bolt with
Superior axles and I completely rebuilt it.
I broke the stock carrier. The spider gears grenaded
while stalling up for a launch.

it's a job by yourself in your garage on your back. Hope this helps.

Tim,
I have checked into stand alone harnesses
like Painless and Street and performance. I have the complete stock
harness and ECM and feel confident enough that I can make it work. I'm
pretty good with electrical and if I get the wiring diagrams I know I can figure
it out. I was thinki
Herb,
Thanks for the pictures. Every bit of info
helps. I can see that it appears they are using the stock serpentine setup
and what they used for intake ducting as well as ECM location.
