Leaving for BTS!!!

The time is approaching quickly. Truck is clean (fresh coat of wax last night), full of fuel, and got the new TC and 6.0 trans cooler in the back seat. I'll be leaving here in a few hours headed for BTS to have the goods installed & trans done tomorrow. Not sure that I'll be back to a computer before Wednesday, it depends on internet access where I'll be tomorrow night, but you all can be sure you will get a post from me when I get the chance. I haven't been this excited about something for a while. I feel almost like I'm getting a whole new truck.

I have a local build, but you will be tickled with the new tranny. With Jody's tunes and a good tranny, life is gooooood. Contrats again on your good fortune!

Have a safe trip, Jeremy, you lucky you-know-what! Be sure and report on the other "extras" going in. And pics, pics, pics!

I'll be sure to get pics of what I can. I don't want to take too many in the shop, as I know Brian has some trade secrets that I'm not about to infringe upon. But, I can get some pics when I get home. I'll also have a good chance to report on the extras like the trans cooler going in, since I'll be making similar trips up and back, load the same, so I can check the temp difference. And that new TC should be a nice thing to have as well.

Mine is already in. Get ready to have a hooker around since you will get a woody. Mine is in the Ex and set up for towing so it has a firm but not too harsh shift. Even surprised the Ford tech that thought it would be rough since it was a performance tranny. Supposedly I can even tow in OD without harming the tranny.
