It could be a couple of things. Drop the motor and send it to me, I'll get it back out in 2 weeks. I also have some spare tranny's so if something is seriously wrong, won't be a problem. My guess, is a bolt backed out and has the shift mech. locked up. That would be a good thing, tear it apart and stage 8 it and put it back together.

Is the bolt that you think fell out one thats involved in the stage8 kit? Also the dealer I bought it from said they were a offical 'dale dealer and they'd stand behind the machine so I am going to try to see if they'll stick to there promises. Otherwise I'm sol since I just financied this thing leaving myself broke to have anyone repair it for me.Thanks for the help so far.
