Thanks for all the help and ideas. I am obviously going to have to pull the
trans axle. Something is terribly wrong inside. This is my best time to
change to a 3:55 and get rid of the 3:89. Guess I won't be taking it to the
May Meet next week. Think if I put a CORVAIR emblem on the Caddy they will
let me enter?

I'll update my findings in the future.
Mike.
