you need also an extra clutch I think. But if you want to think about it you are actually probley making it a little more stronger than the 65E. 65 stands for 65 newton/meter of torque that they tranny is suppose to take. I am sure with all that stuff that you are adding you are probley around 70 or something.

I just noticed your sig. That RULEZ!!!!!!
That build should net you what you want. The 60 can hold a fair amount of power as long as shes built well.

I certainly wish you the best...I rebuilt mine 3 times before I gave up.
i do realize the weight difference. i was just talkin about the f-bodys because i was pointing out the fact that these guys know what theyre doing. i do have TM taken out, i think about 80% or so, i cant really remember... its been ahwile. i plan on getting it tuned even better in the coming weeks.
the truck is at the shop right now, and they said it might be ready friday.
