Hey, your setup now ain't no slouch!! Plenty of guys want to get to where you are now, 500 or more NA'd and an auto, including me, but I had to stop and be happy where I'm at. No more extra "mod" money. I got close, but not where you are. But as always, we want more. lol.. Nicely done sir!!

The SS4 is very streetable and likes the Circle D 5C converter. It behaves well with the SS4/Circle D and 3.91s and a stock intake and will give you plenty of get up and go. And no I've never had any overheating issues of the motor or the trans.

She's screamin

Feels very tight, very driveable at low rpm, cruising, and its an animal, can definitely feel the additional 41 rwhp!

The motor doesn't budge at all with these 100% solid mounts! Very pleased! 10s here I come!

That's awesome to know because I want to go big on my next build too. But I'm considering doing a 415 forged strocker. I'm hoping to get to 650 rwhp NA. Don't really now if it's possible but we'll find out cause I got a really good performance shop down here to help me out.

YESSS! It's coming, and I promise, if you liked these results, you're going to be BLOWN AWAY by the max package. We're working on the write ups now, and should have it released soon.
