I miss the video rental stores, i like redbox and uhm... piratesbay. I wish drive in theaters were still around. I read online that each state WILL have 4 new drive in movie theaters by 2020. I doubt it but it sure would be nice.

You see i dont drive like that. The sound from the corsa is nice, but i am running an LQ9 with my original 4L60E and the only thing changed on that is the 2nd servo

You have a blackbear tune right? I wish i had exhaust [emoji53]

Yes but that will only do so much when you are over powering the trans that much. Remember the LQ9 came with the 65E and the 70E depending on application. Those had better internals. A tune can only do so much and driving like an idiot foesnt help. I dont have $2,000 to spend on a 65E

If you're thinking because it's for a 4wd and yours is 2wd you can put your tail piece on. My tcase coupler isn't even mounted up to it yet. Or bellhousing for that matter lol

Florida doesn't count as most people weren't born here. People keep coming and just don't leave dang it. I find it funny when northerners come down and complain about the drivers when a lot of the drivers are from up there in the first place. In Florida you have to go north to get more southern. Panhandle is a spring break hell for a month and a half out of the year.

 

There is quite a bit of history in Florida. It just gets overlooked because of all the tourist crap.

 

 

 

I haven't seen the new FF movie but as long as it's hilarious like the other 6 I'll enjoy it just fine.

Yea an LQ9 through a 4L60E is a good way to destroy a transmission. lol.

 

A built 60 or an 80 should work though? I was planning to do an 80 swap on my z28 back when I did my LQ4 built but.. I never got that far.

 

All I did to that motor was a 228/228 cam, milled ls6 heads and the guy I sold it to put down 405 at the wheels with it. A little bit of work goes a long way on the 6.0s.

 

The weather today is beautiful but I'm in the house moaning with sinus problems. It's never really nice in Georgia.. its either cold and crappy, rainy and warm, sunny and pollen filled, or BURNING HOT.

 

I usually put my windows down anyway and just put up with it, nothing makes the allergies stop. I'm on about 4 things right now and my sinuses are STILL twice the size of my head!

The historic site I saw called Florida natives "Florida Crackers." My dad got a good chuckle out of it.

 

I'm southern. Born and raised in GA on the SC border. I tried to live as "rural" as I could when I was down there, but you can only get so rural when you're renting and sadly wasn;t there long enough to buy anything. I saw a lot of "yankee go home" stickers and I tended to agree with them.

 

I honestly believe most of the rudeness/short attitudes I got were from people from Indiana, Illinois, Ohio and Ontario since that was most of the out of state tags I saw around town.

 

SW Florida has "the season" in which hoards of 75-85 year olds that can barely drive a car drive their city bus sized RVs down I-75 to Ft Meyers, Sarasota etc. You should see Cracker Barrel at 8am during the season.. its UNREAL.

 

One of the sites I really like in FL is Bulow plantation in ormond beach FL on the northeast side. I also went to a plantation house in Bradenton. I was disappointed though because the house was so small and basically the history is one long story of failure. The owner of the manor basically built there because he got beached on the Manatee river and was like "whelp.. this is life now." He was the rich son of a rich man from the pan handle trying to make it on his own. He didn't.. any time he had a good crop the natives destroyed it, and if they didn't.. the weather did. I still enjoyed seeing it. I was just hoping for a more.. positive history lol.

It would have been from Illinois not Indiana. If they had Indiana tags then they were previously from Illinois
