Thanks man!

Here's a better picture of the 1,600 CFM Throttle Body.



I'm having some issues getting my TH400 UCC Converter to seat on the pump of my transmission, but it seems to seat fine on Trigger's TH400..and his Yank seems to seat on my trans fine..so I think I'm going to have to end up using this converter.

For 200.00 shipped with the 4150-4500 adapter, I wasn't going to pass it up! Plus you can't over TB a EFI car.

Strange the converter is fighting with you, it went right on my th400 with no issues at all. That makes no sense.

I couldn't figure it out. I messed with it for about another hour last night, and FINALLY got it to seat all the way on the pump, so its all good now!

o.k. that's good, I was trying to figure out what the hell..

You did take the paper towel out of the end of the converter I hope LOL, I put that in there just to stop any dust or anything from getting in it... I didn't think anything of it but now hearing you were having a problem I'm hoping you saw that in there, please tell me you did so I'm not worrying about that. Couple blue shop towels folded up and then foled in 12 and put in the end... I am preying you saw them and pulled them out.....

Thanks blue99fbody. Yeah, I'm on cincy too. I'll still have to shift this trans, just no clutch haha.

JL, yeah LOL, I got those out, that wasn't the problem. It was seating on the pump fine with Triggers car, just didn't want to slide onto my trans for some reason. But I finally got it, so its all good.

My dyno #'s and track times are in my sig. He's done plenty of SD tunes along with other crazy **** that you would have to see to believe. He is covered up right now but he's gonna start accepting new appointments at the end of March. Trust me, he's the man!

New trans/ucc converter is in. Time to load it up on the trailer and head to the chassis shop, to have the driveshaft made, and have the rear end setup.

Cars looks nice and sounds like a good build. You not doing your own rearend work? Of course it is a pain if your doing it on the ground with the axle in the car.

BTW your car looks killer! I love the front wheels. I want a set but I gotta save up the $$$ for them.

What kind of power are you hoping to make? Also what's your goal ET wise?
