GM Hydra-Matic Engineer
Most of you do not know me... I am a long time member of the Forum; however I have not been able to visit here with as much frequency as i would like.
I am a former GM Engineer, that worked for:
-The Hydra-Matic/ GM Power-Train Division.
-The Packard Electrical Division (the little P.E.D. on all the electrical connectors)/ The Delphi Electrical Connection Systems Division.
-The GM Service Parts Operations Repairs Division.
I would like to try and put in more time here...
I am a fellow 3rd-gen owner, and I want to give back to this community that I am a part of.
I intend to spend most of my time here in the "Transmission and Drivetrain" Forum for Automatic Transmission related Posts.
If anyone has Automatic Transmission related questions, GM Power-Train related questions or Delphi related questions feel free to contact me.
I have not been available really at all for the last few months due to personal matters... but should not be an issue going forward.
If someone here can not get a hold of me here... I can be found regularly on LS1Tech.com, using the same exact name (VortecIROC).
I have become one of the main contributors/ authorities in the Automatic Transmission Forum there.
I would be happy to at the very least try and help-out anyone that comes asking.
There is one more important thing that I must go over.
I currently have my own Business/ Shop...
I design and build complete GM Power-Train Systems and complete Electrical/ Power Distribution/ EFI Systems for Street and Race vehicles of all types.
I Only offer complete packages starting at 1,000 HP to 3,500 HP... and I also must do the entire installation into the vehicles. No exceptions.
I bring this up; because I DO NOT mix my Business/ Shop with the Forums (LS1Tech and ThirdGen).
I have a large 14 month waiting list to get into the Shop currently.
DO NOT... I repeat, DO NOT ask me here to get on the List or into the SHOP.
I do not want to sell anything here... and I do not want to have Customer contact here.
If anyone here is looking for Parts or Service here... I will refer them to Sponsors or other members here that can be of help.
Other than that... I am happy to help/ be of service to any of you that ask.

Re: GM Hydra-Matic Engineer
I've seen a few of your posts, but didn't want to take those threads off topic by asking...what years did you spend with SPO?
