ok kill me now - 1/4/2007 11:07:40 PM    sockfootball21   Posts: 2 Joined: 1/4/2007 Status: offline ok i know i am new in all but before anyone says anything i have tried to use the search and i havnt found what im looking for. I have been doing as much research on crankwalk as i can. I know what it is and most people say to swap the engine. I also have read about the different tell-tail signs of crankwalk. All the post i have read (yes i tried google also) says about the clutch sticking when making a left hand turn. My question is, is there any different ways of telling if the car is automatic? Are there any different viberations or sounds? Post #: 1

Its not crankwalk, crankwalk will be coming from the right side down lower.. _____________________________ -Project 99 GSX- Built 6 bolt Crower rods ross pistons Built Head FP3x Cams Venom Intake AEM Fuel Rail 850 Injectors *Looking for Sponsors* (in reply to BlackMurcielago) Post #: 8
