Holy crap, it must be... cause this car fucking goes now. I took it out after work for some back-roads testing, and it hauls balls in 1st and 2nd gear. This is how the car should have come from the factory. I looked around and most guys with similar setups on their 5.0s seem to be putting 245-250hp to the ground on the dyno.

I also added a mechanical water temp gauge, with the sensing bulb installed in the front of the lower manifold... sweet.
