Haven't really got on it yet. I still have to figure out how to tune the 4l80e. I ran a th400 with a manual valve body on the street for over 10 years so it looks like I'm going to change this. I like the feel and control better as a manual.

It took a LOT more than a frame notch. I moved the rails in 3 1/2" per side. I'll put some pics up of the frame later.
