It's a big one lol. Yea, stock is what I'm referring too. The 330 was a huge step up, what, 20 years ago or so lol.

How are you going to see where your going with one of those in there ?

I think I only need a 2 inch cowl, lol. It will be a slow process getting there. There's a good chance the 351 will destroy my T5, so I also need to think about doing a 4R70W with 4R475 stuff inside.... Or it might wind up in an AOD case.

The T5 is only rated for 265 lb. feet.... It is brand new though, so maybe it'll hold up for a while, lol.

As long as you don't run slicks and don't power shift it, you should be fine for awhile, then I'd put in a T6 or a Tremec.
At 400RWHP and 375 lb-ft, the "fuse" in my setup is probably the Valeo King Cobra clutch.

I have a King Cobra, but mine is the redesigned, (easier to push/more holding pressure) pressure plate..... which I don't think they use anymore, lol. Mine came in a Motorsport box, so that will tell you how long ago it was - I'm betting 18 years ago or so.

Crap, my older (2014) Vizio 55" Smart/3d Tele took a dump. Won't fire up. Damn, went with a good one for it to last awhile. 4 years, - not very good. Sucks, it had an excellent picture.

We had a Vizio at work that only lasted that long.... plasma though. It is in a recycle bin right now, lol.

Knock-on-wood... my 55 inch Samsung has been a great TV. It is about 4 years old as well. Didn't use it much at the old house, but it is the main set at the new house.
