The STS is a type of Cadillac, and I don't know of any car that came with a 422 cubic inch motor. I think the 422 is a Lingenfelter stroker motor they sell aftermarket.

A 422 is a stroked motor and STS is a turbo company

Scuba Steve- He at least went with a 951 Trans. Better then the regular 944 N/A trans, but not exactly the strongest. I would have to go with an S2 trans as my first choice, then a 88TS-89T trans.
Just stay off any hard launches, and it'll last! haha, hard launches, if you tryed to launch that thing hard it would just ROAST!

Steve- About the only V8 car to have trans issues was one where his son was doing 2nd gear burnouts with his buddies in the car. And that one lasted a year before it gave up.

Leaving for home yesterday, my co-workers were looking for some sort of display of power. Now, they're use to the tremendous smoke shows from my Lightning (which I don't drive much anymore because the 948 rules). So I bury the throttle in 1st, and short-shifting at 5K rpm, spun my 18's up to 4th gear, traveling maybe 40 yards total.
I don't think they know enough to be impressed
