Glad you like it Dan,

The auto does eat up some numbers on the dyno, but I think possible even more is the 95k on the auto that might of let some power slip by. Normally the numbers are slightly higher, but everything is right on and feels great so just enjoy it.

When your ready for gears, your auto will love 3.42's!

I'm thinking of heading back to either 3.73's or 3.42's this winter. Probably also add your radiator and possibly oil cooler as well...got to keep the boy's busy during them cold winter months.

I think either choice will be good for you. I also think you will run faster 1/4 miles because you will have more time to shift before hitting the rev limiter....

the Dewitts Radiator with OC is really worth it. I use to run around 290 on the track for oil temp and now I dont go over 240.
