Default everything is fixed... BEFORE and AFTER.

this happened a few days ago


then I riveted and JB welded a piece of strong sheetmetal


trans before.

trans after a bit of hammering to contor the metal to shape, then JB weld then I pop rivet it on.


exhaust before

exhaust after, took my B16 header and cut off the piece I needed, then cut the bent part out and welded the good b16 pieces in, then JB welded the whole dam thing to seal any small leaks the welds didnt cover.


I hope that JB weld **** holds, I've romped on the car the same night I put it on and so far so good. A little ghetto looking but no big deal, nobady really gives a rats *** anyway especially me.

alo double check your flywheel is thjis ever happens. I bent mine so bad that the FW teeth were hitting the stater teeth and making a chirping sound, I replaced mine with a Fidanza unit and it works great.

I hit what I think was a raised manhole @ about 50-60mph, I really couldnt tell since it was 12-1am. All I know was I felt the entire car lift then down HARD.

not cracked but crushed, the guy that welded it left small holes around a few welds, I used JB weld to seal ANY leaks around the weld.

Yep, it will crack over time. And I hope the weather was right because if the weather is to warm or to cold then it cracks of sooner and won't hold. Anyways they have this stuff, I forgot the name. Basically its space age glue and will hold anything. You could rip an alternator belt and use this glue. If you tryed ripping the belt after the glue, you won't be able to. Thats how strong the stuff is. Anyways I think you should of used that on your tranny or atleast got it welded.
