[QUOTE="clemsonjeep, post: 661414, member: 6317"] Took it out for the first trip on the new 4spd transmission. All I can say is...why didn't I do this the first time around??? It shifts when I tell it to...and the gearing is perfect. 1st gear is a little lower than the 3spd so I found myself using 2nd gear quite a bit and even found myself in 3rd under full throttle on a hill or 2. The shift from 2nd to 3rd will damn near take your head off too. Moving on to the next change...taking a page from jared's (on zuwharrie) build way back when. I noticed he'd changed over to using a velocity stack on the CV carb with a "hat" that attached to the carb via a v-band clamp. There's two things there that I like...velocity stack and the v-band. I picked up the velocity stack from Bison Motorsports and the 3.5" v-band with mild steel rings on eBay. I already had some 3.5" exhaust tubing from when I swapped out the exhaust from my F-250.

I'm hoping this will smooth out transition from no boost to boost a little more...we'll see. [/QUOTE]
