Is anyone else "touchy" about their Mopar? (long rant...)

Good to hear that you built it with your own vision. I am sure that GM unit (with the wonderful and badly needed overdrive ratio :D ) is serving you well.

I have a built 408 stroker, a Dana 60, 4 wheel disc, suspension mods, etc... That transmission is the best money I've spent. I was 4000 rpm at 70 mph before, now I'm 3000 rpm at 80 mph. I beat this tranny up. I do rolling burnouts, regular burnouts, street racing and track racing. It's a trooper for sure.
