Thank god, when I'm ready I plan on making the trip to Houston also. Won't be for quite some time but it's good to know I have that option now.

I'm waiting to see how a Stage 1 Valvebody/higher stall converter will do when coupled with a lightweight drive shaft, 4.55 gears, and closer 1st/2nd gears...all that should make the auto pretty fun and relatively quick...(and expensive, lol)

That sounds like a blast. I'm hoping to see the internals upgraded to handle 600+hp, and similar gearing to the manual. I doubt I'll ever see it but a guy can hope.

That would be a really interesting idea!

Agreed, but I want a 4.88 FD, probably won't mess with the actual gears even in 1-2.

Yeah, 4.88FD will be better for NA definitely. No need to change the 1-2 gears. That would make a really peppy AT car!

I like firm shifts too, but since we DD and commute it's also nice to be able to sip coffee while driving...

and then crack our necks at the track!

I like firm shifts and I cannot lie
You other modders can't deny
When a auto rolls up with a custom valve body
snappin necks outta place
You get sprung!
