I agree but I am concerned with the looseness in the truck. Bone stock it seems like it takes almost as many rpm's to get moving as my GTO does with the stall. Maybe because of the extra weight and less power. I will probably get a Vig 2800. Actual stall is 3000-3200 and it should be real tight.

Does anyone else have a 100 rpm shift ext at WOT??? With my Yank 4000 mine is right at 1000 rpm's at WOT. If 325trooper's is really 100 rpm's at WOT I'm getting a VIG 3600 tomorrow!!!
