I am having a 350ci 425HP/415TQ engine built and my company suggests 3000. I am thinking about the same BTO you have. Are you currently running it, did you have any prob's setting TV? Thanks Tom

I was running a 3k stall and it is a little sloppy for the street but it makes for some really fun launches.
