Parish, do you have a cage yet? Have you looked into getting one if not? You might need it so you don't kill yourself!!!

Good god Parish.......that thing looks like it'll flow more than both my Tials put together........

Hey.....what are they rating your tranny to......Everyone I've talked to so far is telling me that for the power level........the only "reliable" way to go is for me to go with a th400 and a Gear Vendor. Me personally.......I would rather go with an OD that I didn't have to remember to hit button. I was looking at doing a 4l80e..........But know one wanted to tell me it would hold up.

But you've got all the power and traction......did they give you anykind of estimate on how much abuse it would take?
