    I saw that beast sunshell. Will that sunshell change anything or is it just a strong version of the stock sunshell? I dont wanna change the way the trans acts or anything, just make it a little tougher and i was told the stock sunshell is weak..what about this one

    Its supposed to be tougher than the beast AND addresses the planetary problem also..

    That looks good and sonnax is quality stuff. The hard parts don't change anything but strength.
    You should probably start a new thread so we don't jack this one any longer and you may get more/better responses.

    That looks like plenty of room... I plan on body dropping my truck after I finish another car I'm working on and long tubes that stay above the front frame rails are hard to find.

    Well the wiring is finally cleaned up and loomed. I think it came out pretty good. The only gauge not working is my fuel gauge. I did a bunch of searching and repinned the LS PCM with the 2 necessary wires from the factory black box computer and it still isn't working. I had adjustments made in the tune and still have had no luck. If any of you have any tips for me let me know! Just wanted to share a few engine bay pics. Still have a few little things here and there I want to fix up but its 99% done. It sure is fun!

    There are no tips for the fuel gauge. It has to be corrected in the calibration.

    You should get a NNBS intake

    This is a NNBS intake. Thats why I modified the fuel rail crossover.
    The NNBS and the TBSS intakes are the same thing.
