Mustang Work This Weekend

Alright so after much sitting around, I am finally getting some work done on the stang this weekend. Some concerns/thoughts/questions I'd like input on though. Alright, currently I have a 2000 GT, Auto.

Heres what I am getting done:

1. Installing Lentech AODE/4R70W Strip Terminator Full Manual Valve Bodies (W/O Brake)

2. Having 4:10s Installed

3. Installing 2 Corbeau Forza II Seats with 5Point Harness ( I kinda did this on my other stang already, love it)

4. Having a B&M Hammer Shifter Installed

5. Having a SLP Loudmouth II Catback Exhaust Installed (I think this is the one? Is this correct for my GT Auto?)

That aside I am also having it repainted, a new 3rd brake light assembly (mine looks sandpapered, i know, on-going problem), installing a lower front grille (3pc) , and repairing my D-side fog light assembly which is really messed up and cracked. No Idea.

I also have a Evolution GT Steering Wheel which I really want in my stang.

The manual says that Installing it will require me to bypass the airbag though (obviously, and this wheel doesnt have one).

My questions are:

1. Good choice on valve bodies and shifter?

2. Suitable exhaust?

3. I want the steering wheel, is it going to be a hard install? See, right now... the steering wheel has cruise control buttons on it. Whats going to happen with those? I mean quite frankly. Their useless after the valve bodies, what good is cruise control when full manual shifting has to occur?

Also... I won't need anything like a shift kit or a new tune to firm my ship points will I since... that's irrelevant because I am installing manual valve bodies which puts the shifting points in my hands not the cars.

I do know a tune to fix the speedo after the gears is necessary.

Not all that knowledged, ESPECIALLY WITH AUTOMATIC TRANNY. So please work with me here.

New TC?

I don't actually want the Cruise Control. I don't travel on highways and such enough for it to be a nice luxury. Also, I had figured you meant torque converter.

The thing about a new TC is their kind-of expensive. I know I will get an awesome performance increase out of it though.

Any suggestions on a specific TC which would be good for my application? I'd really appreciate it.

Also I've driven cars with MVB's but how do they work with a mustang, I mean... I know, not specific to cars but the Mustang has 3 gears plus that 4th which would be due to overdrive. What do the MVBs do about overdrive, eliminate it?

Haha. Good call.

I'm obviously not installing them myself, I know NOTHING about transmissions.

Any clue what I should set aside for install costs on Manual Valve Bodies?
