Hey guys, I recently purchased a Radix with the group purchase. Should be here in two weeks or so. :rocking: I just have some questions about some other things to go along with it. I plan on getting a FLT level 5 4L70E tranny http://finishlinetrans.com/store/product_info.php?cPath=1_22&products_id=31 I will be ordering the tranny after I get the supercharger installed. The stock tranny should be okay for a few weeks if I don't thrash on it too much correct? I am also planning on going with a new stall converter such as the Yank TT 2600. http://www.converter.cc/converters/truck/truck_main.htm It says 2600 stall with a stock 5.3, but I'm sure it will stall much higher with a supercharged 6.0L. I haven't spoke with the guys at yank yet but I'm just curious what do you guys think it will stall at? I don't want a stall too high because I do tow things from time to time with this truck. I would like to keep the stall around 2600 or so. I just want something to get me off the line a little harder, and I like the 2.1 STR also :devil2: I also plan to get a bigger tranny cooler to go along with this too, I haven't looked into them much yet, any suggestions? For the gauges I would like to remove my stock cluster and get one with the tranny temp gauge to take care of that part, and I wanna run a triple gauge piller. I was thinking Boost, IAT, and A/F ratio. Does that sound about right or would you guys suggest I run something different, or more gauges? For the tune im gonna go with Nelson Performance and get a S & D tune since hes only 30 miles down the road from where I live and I have heard ALOT of good things about him and his shop. I also plan on getting a cam in this thing but thats a ways down the road. Do I need to change from the stock spark plugs or can I just use those? I have also read up on the thermostat and it seems I can just keep the stock thermostat and be fine. I know this is alot of questions at once but I have never owned, or installed a supercharger so I just wanna get as much info/ suggestions as I can so I can do this right. Thanks for the help,
Sam
