I havent put in the TFS stuff yet, I was going to go with the TFS stage one as everyone suggested it was best... though it seems that alot of the low end can be gained from the intake... I guess that's why people like the cobra intake... in anycase... since we seem to be in the same boat as far as having CONVERTIBLE AOD cars, I think we all will be lacking low end for a number of reasons... power loss through the AOD, less gears and therefore higher gearing in the AOD, Heaviest foxbody, and the least amount of weight in the rear (bad traction). So we're allready playing with a handicap. I have some 3.73 gears waiting to be put in, as well as the Twisted wedges heads and intake. I was hoping for some nice power increase... wich I'm sure I'll find.. I wonder if a different cam would be in order... though as long as the car MOVES on the street I'm ok with that... since once you're out of first gear you spend the rest of the time in 3000 and above... as it is.. my engine is stock and it doesn start pulling till about 2500 but it feel like it dies off around 5000...
ok.. enough from me... just thinking out loud here
