MSD 5 is an assist to the factory spark, hotter coil, hotter tfi, I think Accel makes them, Aode transes are pretty strong, no c4 c6 is better, manual aod strong, its just a c6 with an extra gear, but prob is ecu needs aode to operate engine properly.

Yes, its just a heavy duty upgrade, if they put the aode behind a diesel a gas motor is no problem.

Either find some explorer gt40 heads or edelbrock heads, crane, comp cams have some for the speed density engines, headman or dynomax headers, msd 5 5200 box will give you some hp.
