Thank you, sir. I wasn't sure what came forged out of the factory, but when he said that, I obviously knew it wasn't everything, so figured I'd ask.

helped me source many of the components - give Zach or David a call - they will be able to hook you up, or at least point you in the right direction.

I enjoy the thrill ride as much as the next guy, but lighting the tyres up on the 4th to 5th shift is already enough jollies for me, I cant imagine trying to powershift at 7000rpm at 150mph hehe

I e-mailed MTI yesterday about the cost to do the conversion and I haven't hear back yet. How much coin are we talking about??

the Tb is 499.00 but the fit is perfect and it acually matches the LS7 opening to a T seals nicely and works flawlessly heres some pics. Nothing was needed to change over

looks like you should remove the TB and put a knife edge on the blade. Otherwise looks pretty nice.

But I too would love to hear more bout this 100 TB to match my own stock LS7 blocked 427 beast

by the way Traver did you read that correctly??? "stock" LS7 block hahahaha guess we'll both be needing new blocks soon cause at these levels we couldnt be doing it without cracking the sleeves hahahaha j/k you know we'll never stop this battle lol

Comtech makes 100mm TBs. And RevXtreme sells them.

I made a little "ride along" video for general viewing pleasure.

Ignore the slow-poke granny shifting - we are working on figuring out of there is a hydraulic issue or a tranny issue - but suffice it to say, the bastard won't allow any fater shifting at the moment.
