Geez, just realized I did not update this post. I opted for an Extreme Transmission 200R4. Lonnie came highly recommended by Jake over at TC. The trans ships tomorrow and I know the misses cannot wait to get it installed. At the same time the trans is going in were getting a Hydroboost brake conversion so no more worrying about enough vacuum.

Sounds good, I'm sure you'll like that overdrive on freeway.

Pretty sure we will too. Only thing I regret is not going with 4.11 gears.

Sounds nice! Can't wait to hear how it goes. Remember now's the time to go with a nice external trans cooler plumbed through the stock radiator cooler also. Does your car have the column shift or is it a console on the floor? I see they have the Shiftworks detent plates and new lenses to match. It really takes the guesswork out of it all. I'm guessing you'll be able to keep the stock driveshaft and trans mount too.

Where's the "I'm a *little* jealous" smiley? I hope you guys are working on putting it in now, so you can tear up some street with that new 200 trans and converter. It is going to feel like a different car, Ms Grumpy.
