Something to consider before tossing that spare trans is would be to upgrade the VB to a JW, BTW, or TransGo setup. It'll help a bit.
While you're in there, a 6.0 cooler will do you quite well overall.
Now that you're running a tuner, I'd recommend some gauges to keep an eye on your temperatures.

Got her here finally. I've had to fix several things on the Massachusetts rust bucket. I still have several to fix. I believe the battery saver relay is bad. It will occasionally give me problems like loss of interior lights, no power windows or weak power windows and battery will be dead. The overhead console will not display anything so I suppose the diodes need to be soldered.
I went with the SCT programmer. I picked it up for $90 bucks. It was a nightmare getting it to work as the power cord for the USB was shorted internally. Finally got it updated and installed. It helped a good bit, but doesn't really feel like a 110HP upgrade. I also located a used 4r100 with 48K original miles. It'll get me over the hump until I can build a good one.

The guys at SCT recommended that i load the performance tune for DD and economy.
I do agree on the gauges. I'm not pushing it at all at this point so there should be no danger of EGT's getting up on me. BTW, i'm running it on WVO.
