Gear change in the rear would be cheaper, easier. 3:00 are pretty high but should be ok. Should be great out on the freeway!

your vacuum pump is going bad, and not giving the trans modulator enough vacuum signal to shift. you need at least 17 inches of vacuum for the trans to work properly.

What does it take to mount an at545 to a 7.3 IDI? My truck currently has a destroyed C6.
