Got my Circle D converter put in this weekend and i love it, Big thanks to Chris for expediting the shipping for me to get it in time, the only thing im blowing through now is the tires! I must say that i have never seen anyone take as much care with his product and also take the time to meticulously package an item, small things like this are a HUGE selling point in my opinion, hes is on top for one of my best buys i have ever made for this truck! The track ended up cancelling this weekend for me to get some runs in but i enjoyed rippin the street up! Here are a few pics of the converter and ill get some of the new trans crossmember i made when the truck is back in the air

Love it man, so far on the street it feels great here are a couple pics from today from some epic fail (Mexico) racing.... Cold *** concrete just didnt like boost but the motor did! Ill have some vids in a couple weeks when the track is back open with some solid numbers between the two converters....

Camaro next to me is a friends and he pretty much dead hooks on concrete lol





This was my first street race and i lost i just blew the tires off lol

Just curious, I dont think I ever remember you saying anything about you rear end other than it having a posi and gears... You still running an 8.5" with stock 28 spline axles? I'm wondering if I'm gonna have to upgrade my axle in the near future...

Edit: I just read somewhere that the 90+ have 30 spline axles.. I guess I'm out of luck!

The rearend is a full spool now with 30 or 33 spline axels, it was the most spline count strange made for my rearend, it is a 10 bolt still narrowed like 6" in all with the big 9" bearing ends put on it.
