definitly, welded the back diff up a few weeks ago and dosent quite have enough power to keep the wheels spinning on dry concrete, super loud out the intake but it keeps chugging along.

oh and about the gearbox, its going good but its had a hard life...

Looking at a whole commodore this weekend for 500, been rolled but only after the motor / box.
