Right now I'm just guessing power output. No dyno numbers but I dont think 460WHP will be to far off the mark. The guy that built my rear recomended ATI so i'm doing a little research on them today.

Well guys settled on a local company Trans specialties out of PA. Went with a 9in converter that'll stall at 3800. The company said They can restall this converter when I move up to the dart block and bigger shot of n2o. The Local shop puts them in all the 5.0 and they seam to get good results. Also went with a hurst pro shifter and enough cooling mods to keep the trans happy. I'll keep you updated after I make a few passes. I'll be looking for a few 10 second slips this season.
