Default Critique this. S475/LQ9 6.0 setup.

Just finishing collecting parts for my build, here is what I have so far:
3100-3200 95 Transam
2005 LQ9 6.0
Ported 317's with BTR. 660 lift spring kit.
LS9 headgaskets, Chinese studs.
Iskys 220/220 580 lift cam
Megasquirt Gold box sequential box
80# injectors, after market fuel rails with boost ref regulator, return and 3-255lph pumps with a #8an feed. Also alcohol injections for supplemental fuel too.
LS7 lifters/trays
TBSS intake with 4bolt 90mm T.B.
S475 T6, 1.32AR 96mm turbine
A/W intercooler under hood with water box in rear.
3500 Precision Industries converter setup for this combo
Powerglide with. Transbrake etc...
3.20-3.55 gears in the Fab 9".
Still haven't gotten the cage welded up b/c it has to be tigged but I have a guy to do it now. What would you change about this combo?

I'm going to give the converter a try only because I had it and it worked great both N/A and with 200hp n20. I sent it to Precision and had them put a turbo stator and tighten it up to 3500. If it doesn't work right then I'll buy a new PTC converter but stock 48's car ran 8.30's@164mph with a Yank converter Too. Jared did the cam for this engine so if should make enough power to go 8's once it's tuned.

I am actually worried you wil blow through that converter but If you have it already why not give it a try. I have a stock248 cam in mine the 218/218 so we both know that won't be a problem. Good luck with the setup
