The tune is Bama, and thanks everyone for all the great input.

RE: Performance upgrades for Auto-Trans?

Sounds like you have a solid start there! I would also scratch the TB and get a tuner and some tunes from Bama.

The 1 piece drive shaft is a good idea.

Maybe some LCA's to hook that power to the ground when you do want to use it.

Then there is always [sm=nxsmile.gif]this works well if you just want power on occassion!

Most bang for the buck for sure!

4.10's gears (Considered 3.73's then got smart). Seat in the pants performance, trust me.

Steeda UDP's as well -the above post is the first I heard about not doing them, why I dont know. Pulley's free up HP from parasitic devices.

Mine is an auto as well- great upgrades, totally different car. I think most people think these mods on my rideare the basics

My speed shop is highly respected for their expertise with Mustangs and Fords. So when they say 3.73s match up best with an auto trans thats what I go with. They also said that the UDPs are not a good match for the auto trans but are good for manuals so I saved some cash and didn't get them. I figured if they told me that and lost out on the sale they are serious about it.

A 3000 stall torque converter along with your 373 gears will be lethal. Along side of that a transmission cooler and you will have a strong running steed.
