yeah thats the guy i got it from but he lied about a bunch of stuff on the car i didnt know until it burnt a piston some of the lies
not a tremec trans factory borg and warner
had the factory ihi turbo
havent tore the motor all the way apart to check the internals
but the bores looked like they had been honed recently
but the only reson i was askin is because i waas just really wondering what was acutually done to this tc or if any one knows because when it was runnin it was extremly fast it would have killed my 87 tc
thanks for the input guys
pete not sure what u meant by that post
in the next day or 2 i will post up some pics of the piston carnage

The seller sounds pretty illiterate, there's no telling what has happened to that poor TC.
