Love the car!!!! Perfect lines!
Hate that your going Auto. But, it will 1/4 much faster (obviously). I would love to here an honest review about how you feel about the swap to auto at the end of the season as far as driver enjoyment.

Did you happen to hear from anyone how much power you could actually put through overdrive on a well built 4L80E? I had a new one built last winter for my Z and just received 5 boxes of Holley EFI stuff including the 4L80 trans harness, so I've sort of commited to running it. I assume the Dominator could be programmed to back the boost off in overdrive.

With stock guts it held around 700 whp in od fine for me.

I've made a 4l65e live at 800 at the tire with careful driving in 4th
biggest problem is aggressive throttle that forces a downshift
if you need to go fast, slow down, shift to 3rd, and let er rip
od won't gain you a thing beyond the repairs

I'm looking forward to hearing how the glide/gv set up works. My motor is finally starting to take shape and will hopefully be running n/a by the end of summer. I'd like to try getting into the 9's before adding the charger/chargers so I'll leave the 4l80 in for now.

BTW does anyone know the thread sizes for the in/out ports on the housing? Also which one is input/output?

Im excited to get it going. The GV unit shipped yesterday and shows to be at my door step Monday. I still cant believe this tiny *** Transmission is capable of holding 1200+ HP

Update: Motor is back together and waiting to go back in. GV unit is on the truck for todays delivery.
While i was waiting i started to redo my my fuel system as i had eBay rubber/SS braid fuel lines. I felt like this was a ticking time bomb especially since ive been running E85 a lot more lately. A friend of mine gets distributor pricing from AeroFlow in AUS so i ordered a bunch of Black anodized Aluminum tubing so i could re do my long straights. I also went ahead and ordered some black Teflon hose to connect to the motor and cover some of the tricky areas. I have to say that Aluminum is AWESOME to work with.. The **** bends anyway i want and flares are just a joke.. The stuff is awesome to work with. I will get some updated pictures soon but rest assured there is progress in the back ground. Oh and I also switch to solid motor mounts.
