I do have a friend of mine that is a fan of roots style superchargers-- get all the drive ability of the stock engine until you mash the gas. The only thing that is disappointing in the numbers is the fact that you have all matched products except for the cam-- I honestly would have thought you would be pushing more like 250 down to the tires.

Thats kind of what I was expecting. Some of your parts rare and not even available anymore. Now if you could ditch the E4OD.... I'd be interested to see how your trans holds together with the changes. Firmer shifts means less slip in TC and less heat, right?

Hit the dez this morning for a few hours with bajamil (John) and finallly got too get some footage of my rear axle bump stops. I was curious to see if it was firm enough to keep the shock safe and from the video it looks like it will do just fine!
I got a few vids of John getting used to his new Bronco (Cypher was the PO) it looked really smooth and plush through the whoops, really clean ride!
