    I would've just kept revving up the engine while she was trying to talk.

    "Sorry, what was that? You're an annoying cow? I can't hear your stupidity over how awesome my Duramax is!"

    Messing around with my aux section. Synchro looks good so I'll throw new bearings on the countershafts and bolt them back together. Not much left to do after that. Install input shaft seal, bellhousing and shift bar housing.

    So I finally decided to pull the trigger on some custom exhaust work. I'm going to assume broken sleep and anger/frustration during that particular day led me to hit up the glorious chrome shop.
    30 minutes of shopping and 6 hours of installing led to a happy driver! Probably one of my more enjoyable projects for once, lol.
