I enjoy my nuts being outside my body, so I avoid those temperatures.

Polishing the tranny is taking FOREVER! I might end up just painting it black. I have heard all the muscle car guys have always painted their blocks and trannys black because it keeps the heat down somehow. Since I plan on boosting soon, I want the bay to stay as cool as I can. Might give it a try.

dude don't paint it black. a layer of paint will do nothing but keep it hotter and a polished one would look so sweet.

^Your sig quote is hilarious. All the old guys say black is the only color that will disperse the heat quicker. But I love the way polished looks.
