I am not very chemical savy! Okay, so i am prepping my 69 3spd t-case to rebuild it and put it behind the LT-1 4l60 E combo. The grime on it is super heavy and thick and no degreaser was even touching it.I went to the store to find something else to strip it and the guy says, hey muratic acid is great at stripping the grime. So, i took just the empty case itself and dunked it in a bucket of acid and water solution and go inside to finish other chores. Well to my shock i come out and there is smoke and fumes everywhere! I should have known that muratic acid and aluminum don't mix!!! So my case is pretty F uped. Pitted good and i am affraid that the threaded holes would just crumble under the load of a bolt. This is actually pretty embarassing to post but i thought yall would laugh.
My options....Find another case or upgrade to the orion. I already have the adapters and don't want to spend the $ on new ones. The Vette LT1 would probably
be suited better with a stronger case. any thoughts? thanks!
