Looks ok, though stall isn't big enough for the cam. If you can steer it, and you have grip and can do a 1.6sec 60 footer it will run into the high 11's @ 118-122mph. Whats this shift kit stuff your talking about? Its all done in the tune?

DUKE is talking about that you can change the firmness of shifts all within the computer while tuning the car... Did it with mine and it chirps 1st to 2nd now (still a stocker) Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

mate honestly start full exhaust headers cats and a twin 2.5 or twin 3 inch go mafles of course then do a otr and tune. bing a vy the manifold flows not to bad comprd to vt ls1z but go for a fast or you can also put a ls2 manifold ther are a few other 1nz on on the market but they mostly all come from the same manufacter a 90mm throttle body will help fast, holly, there are also lots of other brands that make em, all prity reputable names. now head and cams now the size of the cam is up to u thez days you can go a prity decent size cam and have it tuned to behave well enough to drive every day but then again you will want it to be lupy coz that is half the fun of a cam.if it was manual it would probly b easya to drive coz u have complete control of the revs wen u r driving but B ing an auto u will have to chuck a high stall in it. It will bit harda to do simple typs of driving like backing out of a car park becoz ovisly a cam will giv it an ereguala idle wich means you will have to give it more revs to move it wich can mean driving an auto with 2 feet. also as you said diff gears 3.9s arnt as bad in an auto as people think personally you will regret 3.7 3.9 will jst make it feel that extra bit punchy. also with the auto shifkit & all the usual other **** they put in em and if need b strengthn it. and if ive forgotn anythn and i remeber i will let ua no lol hope ive been of some help ---------- Post added 01-06-10 at 01:08 ---------- Quote: Originally Posted by LANKS_87 [View Post] I had a bad experience with c&a auto fashion.

I don't know the full specs of it cos I got it off someone that knows sweet fa about cars but I know it has a fairly large cam, maffless tuned, single 3 inch and it's a series 2 vy ss engine... from expirince with a lot of trial and era with cams on the old mans car with his old cam it was making 263rwkw with priity much standard evrythn but his new combo wich is not much standard anything its made a best of 322.2

Oil surge.. check oil level. 3.9s are a good choice in a manual.
