Going to feel awesome! I love the fact I can cruise away at 15 mph and blip the throttle to chirp the tires then let it bog back down in first.

my brother just finished getting his Edge 3000 stall installed along with a transgo shiftkit and holy what a difference. during normal cruising, you can barely feel the shift it happens so quick. while on a roll and putting your foot in it, it just takes off.

cant wait to install mine. hopefully on monday if things go as planned

Yeah my shifts smoothed out as well, it'll still chirp in second most of the time, but not as violently as it did before the stall. Stands to reason with the smaller rotating mass of the converter.

I was hoping you were talking about YOUR car being finished.

lol. no this on my brothers LT1 Trans Am.

i'm getting a friend of mine who works at a Ford dealer to price me out some tranny stuff like accumulators, deep tranny pan, and input shaft etc.

i'm still not sure what to put the transgo set up as. i'm thinking using 2 washers and drilling the holes to the larger size "with small diam high stall converter"

I too noticed the decrease in "chirping" ability after the Stallion. Even with the TwEECer firming up the shifts, it's not as radical..but it sure is "loose"

I like that I can cruise through the parking lot at 15 mph and goose it and break loose the tires. Much more impressive than bogging.

There's a girl at my new job with a Camaro talking smack on my "pustang" as I heard she called it. I will have to put her in her place very soon.

Actually she is very nice on the eyes. Her boyfriend works here too I guess. So I'm sure once I lay the smack down on her, he'll have to drive.
