jay, I haven't had time to change anything on it yet. Probably order the converter this week and then see what the time frame is for the mast 4500 intake.

Mast intake will sit a bunch higher, I hope it doesn't cause ya to have to redo the pan! I'd think you would want to go to the 4500 tb at the same time no?
The converter I still think is going to really make the difference. You get an 8 inch 5800 to 6000 in with that bad boy, and get the intake on there so it will pull to 8000 and it's going to really wake up, probably 50 hp more then it's making now, and the converter, well ya better strap that front end down or you're likely to flip the car over!

yea, i will be redoing the pan as i am going to a 4500. not a big deal as i know what i need to do to make it work now. although i dont think i will be putting the iat sensor in it this time, i will just put it behind the headlight somewhere. its still a mismatched combo for sure. 6.26 1/8th so far. the car runs hard as hell on the top end though. might regear it too.
If you can, spring for a sheet metal intake, and just put a 2nd 4150 on that (run 2) I think there's another 50 hp in that motor, plus it will pull right up to and probably past 8000 rpm too that way.... even the mast intake with a single 4500 is going to be a big improvement.
