What should I go with and how much will it, or they, cost? Something about a stall convertor? I mentioned about a Hypertech programmer, and a different gear in the rear. What gears should I go with? Ofcourse a 10lb. bottle of spray is optional. So how bout it.

2800-3200 = if you won't be doing H/C or Cam Only. And if you will not be going to the track often.

3500-3500 = if you think you might be doing H/C or Cam Only. Or you think you will be going to the track about once a month or more.

Go with at least 3.42 gears. Figure on about 700-800 for a new Yank or Vig converter. You can go with a TCI converter for about 500.00.
