<x-charset iso-8859-1>MarcB=> I plan on installing a Rancho rebuilt
=> trans., but am still debating the freeway flyer issue.
=> Does anyone have any experence with this?

I had mine done there, put in a 3.8 R&P and adjusted third gear. Works
great. The only thing I'd do differently having driven it for a while is
that I'd have shortened first as well for stock or better torque off the
line.

=> not one piece of cooling tin is absent.
=> It runs great, I just want to increase the long
=> term reliability of this engine.

Have you considered a Type 4 oil cooler?
