      I'm not in business to sell the thing so I won't lose anything by telling you the truth.Call Bob Hanlon at Hanlon Motorsports 610-469-2695 if you don't believe me he'll tell you the truth which is his downfall.He has a conscience so he won't give you false claims that won't stand up. You're better off with a TKO 5 or 600 because the parts are much larger.I know they are expensive but if you paid the $1895 listed in the ad for another $500 you get something that will live. Even if you paid much less after 3 blow ups you bought a TKO anyway.Another thing to consider is the weight of your Crown just more stress on a trans that was factory rated for 300 ft/lbs of torque in a 3000lb car.Not trying to be a wise ass just trying to let you know what I've come to learn over 25 years of building the things.

                      I see the car likes going forward more than reverse.

                      I appreciate you sharing the videos. You built yourself one hell of a car.

                            Please do some more videos like this one! Love the 2x camera angles.



                            It seems like 1st gear is gone before you even know it, but that's just my perception. I have never drag raced anything lol
