    Where is the trans sensor located? In the pan, in the trans check port, trans line? Location will make a huge difference. If in the check port or output trans line, it will always show hotter than if in the pan (which is a more average temp reading). Any location on the output side of the...

    Thanks for all the pics. Looks very nice. Two things I am curious about. First, it seems there is not really a glove box, in the sense it is very shallow and not likely very useful. Second, if the stock heater core box is tight, I would guess an aftermarket A/C system is not likely going to...

    I am just surprised by how many 6.2/6.5 engines that people have put ARP head studs in, that leak. I have used head studs in other engines (not the 6.2/6.5 series) that the studs run into the coolant ports and have never had any issues with leaking. What is it about these engines that causes...

    Agree, uploaded to the site pics means they will still be around in years to come. Linked pics are always at the risk of an account loss, change in hosting service, etc.

    Nice upgrades! How do you like the new dash setup? I keep toying with the idea of using that.
