First issue has come up with the build. Transmission failure.
Going to work the car didn't want to connect power to the wheels. The rpm's continue to go up with throttle but no response with the transmission. It'll sit in park but doesn't want to pull in gear.
Brought it in and after a fluid change it seemed fine again. Not the case. Driving home and going to pass someone the rpm's bounced off the rev limit and it didn't want to catch again.
Insult to injury, when the first tow company took it in they chipped my front bumper. Bringing it back in today (different tow company) and will see what the issue is.

Looks like the clutch packs went. Still have to confirm but it makes sense as it is the only thing I didn't upgrade. Going to have the transmission overhauled by Level 10 to find the problem and correct it. Going to get the "Bulletproof" treatment like SharpbyCoop (hopefully I can break his records hahaha)

So was it the clutch pack failure like you thought? What's the cost for the full bulletproof treatment if you don't mind me asking?
I'm sure you've been going crazy waiting for all this to come together, your patience will pay off in spades though. Looking forward to your impressions when you get it down the road
