Rio, Mike has a sound clip in his sig.
Here is an update.
I have been doing some heat cycles, extending the 02's finishing the wiring and tomorrow after I trunk mount the bat i'm taking her for a drive to load the engine then i'm changing the oil and letting her fly. I will take some puctures of it but i'm using the stock 94-95 throttle cable. I found a piece of thick aluminum thats a 90* bend and a nice strong spring then I cut off the throttle bracket from the stocker tb and welded it to the holley 95mm tb. I couldent get the cruse hooked up yet but I have a nice sturdy throttle hookup. It idles pretty good at 850rpm and it's a nice clean rev from that to 4000rpm. I just took a vid and once i get out of the shower i'm going to upload it.

brandon, if you could estimate the total money spent on this project, what would that dollar amount be?

5-6k including the rebuilt 4r70w with a pi multi disc converter. I bought just about everything used and if it was new I got it for a great price.
Not bad for a deceent setup.
Next year i'm going to sell my vic Jr heads and upgrade to afr 225's and maybee some kooks headers.
