Do it! We did some shakedown passes with kdanner's car last night at Lonestar Motorsports Park in Sealy. Air was terrible but they did a good job with the track.

Best pass was:


First time the car has been to the strip in over a year. It should run mid 10's when the weather cools.

I've been watching that video for about an hour now. It's very tempting. I will not be swapping over to the 6R80 though. That 1-2 shift bugs me badly. Still leaning towards a 4R70, but looking at the 4R100 and even the GM stuff right now.

Boss powered? Like pistons and crank or full longblock?

I bought an entire Boss engine from a Ford dealer in January 2011, before the Boss cars actually shipped. It was cheap at the time. Sold my stock engine for good $, in the end the Boss upgrade cost me $1500. Only internal upgrade is I installed Triangle Speed's pump gears before installing the engine. What I didn't know at the time since the cars weren't out yet is that the Boss engines aren't any faster than a GT once they both have the Boss manifold and are tuned. But, the durability upgrade for that price was worth it anyway I think.
