Cool!!! Now, how can you repurpose the anti-rust winding bars? Num Chucks? Just wear them when you open the door...

They range from ~100-800 cfm.
IF you got one w a 6" vent, you did ok. And - you can up it later with an inline attic booster fan, if ever desired. 400 cfm is nice when garlic bread / etc gets burnt. Tho' ever since a particular TGIF had a chef w his personal, "Blackened Cajun Pizza," I & she have taken a liking to our breads a bit blackened. Burnt toast cubes also a good munchie for a sour tummy.

Holy crap, White! The one I'm replacing was installed in 2007.

I really wish appliances would still last like that. The stove and the fridge have been really good but the dishwasher has been... iffy. i think i have it figured out now though. Honestly I think i could take it apart blindfolded.

I know what you mean. I knew those Kenmore's inside and out. This is the backing plate out of the dryer for the timer. I repurposed it for the transmission in the 98...it's still on the job. Yep, I drilled, cut and made those holes just right lol. The original plate I drilled the holes too large, couldn't get a replacement...so I made one. The old Kenmore is still in my life kind of.

LOL, that's funny Brew. Good thinking!

Quick question for you guys.... @akdoggie may know the answer on this one too. GM has a REALLY nice technicians guide for their transmissions. I would really like to find something like this for 4R70's, 4R100/E4OD's as well. Do any of you know if this exists? It tells you what passages are pressured, suction, etc. when the valve body is in a certain state.
