Default Performabuilt lvl2 installed

Finnaly got her in but havent gotten a chance to enjoy it as you can read about my numerous problems in the GEN III internal engine section. I only went about half throttle once with it it had a nice little crisp shift to it and seemed like it wanted to spin my drag radials it may have. Other than the tranny feeling good thats all i can tell ya. Hopefully my problems will work out someday with my mysterious head problem and i can actually run the car.

Thanks performabuilt

You talking about me? I dont have PRC heads I have stock castings that are ported. It made 414 & 6100 with a hellacious vacuum leak and a cam half the size of yours. The tranny is doing great performabuilt im happy with it. Just need to figure out where my power went then im going to spin that forged motor hopefully near 6800-7K
