Default back to the drawing board!

well the guy that was going to buy my 454/4 speed trans backed out after only giving me a deposit! so i am a little sad but a little happy at the same time. very upset that i spent all that time and money on my LSx motor i am about 3 grand into and i need about 2 grand more to get it up and running. But i guess i might as well take the time and energy to get the 454 up and running

Sorry Shaun. It is so hard, especially since he had already given you a deposit.

Just need to find a few more guys to give a deposit and back out.

I had the same problem when I sold my LT1...

I am going to see if i can gather a team of guys to swing down to my house and help me get this 454 running. i feel like such a noob when it comes to these things. give me EFI and a computer i can work wonders. carb and simple dizzy i feel lost due to how simple it is..lol

You may find another buyer quickly once you get it running and driving.
