Yes, to all.. But you can still drive it on the stock tune. But it is good Idea to get your shift points adjusted, TM removed. You really need to match your stall to your cams powerband. Stock cam 3000-3500 would be good..

so if i was going to get a converter with my set-up my best bet would be a 3000-3500
i just dont want to get the wrong one, i can get a fuddle 3800 stall for a good price but dont plan on getting any other mods then the ones i got which are lt headers,lid,ory,cut-out,tr-55,slp fan i think thats it i might get pully,and dry shot but not for a while so what would be the best kind to get without getting a tune if i dont plan on modding anymore? thanks

yes 3000-3500 would be good for you combo. And stay away from Fuddle too many horror stories latley. I do not think they are even a sponsor of this site anymore. Save your money and get a Yank, Vig, or TCI with a billet front cover...
