I am using the 4.6 torque converter. It will not last too long especially when I put the blower back on but a built tranny will be on its way soon!

at least you'll put more power to the ground until the trans lets loose 9if you haven't already done so now is the time for a shift kit)

the navi intake looks good without the plastic cover and will look better with the snail under the hood again

FIRED IT UP TONIGHT Runs really smooth! sounds a bit like a tractor so its off to the muffler shop in the morning. It ran a bit fat running the 60# injectors N/A and heated up the driver side cat that it was glowing red , but leaned it out 30% and all is fine. So after the exhaust has been welded up , I can get the tune dialed in better.

Yea , they usually won't glow unless there plugged or close to it. After all the work you have done, you don't want a restriction like that. I would swap them out if I seen it get that hot..If it got that hot in there , the cat cone can melt together making matters worse. - I've seen it.
