[QUOTE="BADASS03SVT, post: 8364498, member: 12504"] what gears and tire do you run? honestly...Ive been getting so many pm's on this since I posted that thread. its a HUGE change from the t-56. i would only suggest it to serious drag racers. even if your car see's limited street duty and your running a 3.73 or more, the highway will be a nog o or annoying at 3500rpms cruising. your losing overdrive gears, your losing lockup the c4 also uses less fluid and combined w/ no lockup = more heat. it will deff run warmer than an AOD/AODE/4r70w trans. I mean in no way am I putting the trans down, it was great when I had it going (itll be back tomorrow!) but its deff not for everyone. I would hate to see some of you guys toss it in and hate it. its a BIG change. I had the 4r70w for 2 years and loved that also. OD was great. could still cruise on the highway comfortably at 75mph. now Im stuck to backroads till I add some power and drop the gears down. wiring....need a switch for the brake (if you do one, if you dont thats dumb). then you need to wire your reverse lights and neutral safety wires to your new shifter. btw there are only a few shifters that fit in the stock location. most are relocating it to the center of the console. it uses the t-56 crossmember, just moved closer and you drill a new mounting hole in the mounting plate on the body. can also use a FMS fox shaft if you want. not the correct length but some are using it w/ no issue's. I just ordered one the right length. I can tell you everything you need to know if your going to do it, I just like pointing this stuff out because sometimes people dont realize. not trying to insult your intelligence if you knew.
