Just to clarify the situation as to what transmission was in the green truck: It's a full billet comp 48RE with our new OM3GA input shaft and converter and our stubby output shaft kit. All these parts are off the shelf and stocked for anyone who wants to purchase them. Also keep in mind that the trans that clicked off the 8.91 was also the same one that was in the truck at Redneck's, Buck's (where it broke a driveshaft), and at Pass Time. No R&R nor replacement of the trans or converter. No double overdrive (58RE) was used due to the fact that Team Green was still geared for the 1/8th mile races they just completed.
Congratulations again to Mr. Earl and all of Team Green!
