Traction bars will go on after I drive it a little.
I think I've already asked this, but what about our tcase? What's their breaking point?

For any of you guys looking for 20-30 extra HP when doing your eaton swap.

Another idea was to try to install the Cobra Mustang, high-flow throttle body. This throttle body has the same dimensions as the factory Lightning throttle body, however, it features a single blade rather than the factory's double barrel blade design. The only problem with the Cobra throttle body is that the TPS sensor and throttle linkage is reversed from that of the Lightning's. We tried it anyway, manually opening the throttle linkage throughout the dyno runs. The results of this test using the factory chip setting netted us another 14 hp. Flipping the chip to the performance setting, the combination of the chip, the free-flow air intake modification, and the Cobra throttle body achieved 30 extra horsepower.

I have a super nice Lightning throttle body polished from Dave if they need it.

I think I may go with the cobra SB.

My truck eats stock or lightly modified lightnings for breakfast at the strip. You should have no problems since you're power goals are twice as high lol
