Shift Recovery - 4500 with a 6200 shift.

Exactly what I was needing and the price was not just hard to beat, you can't beat it!

Will get videos up for any interested!
Post up videos man

Good vids.
Looks like a pretty good DD converter. Btw is that in your 2000 or 2004?

215/222 .603/.596 115+3
ARH 1 7/8" LT's
4.30 gears
Intake/Exhaust...

Pretty mild setup, I didn't want any chop to it and with a little tuning it sounds basically stock with a exhaust.

hah! Not bad for a DD.

I just built a DD with a LS6 cam in a square port 6.0. I put it into a Saab 9-7x. That has a FTI street brawler 3000 RPM converter. It's been great for DD so far. Part of that being that I never drove the thing with a stock converter... so i never really had anything to directly compare it to. The rest of the ride feels so different than the truck that its hard to compare them believe it or not.
