    518 46re smoked

    probably no hard part damage unless the bands are down to metal. Plenty of performance parts if you want to beef it up even more. Where in SoCal. Ever make it over to Phoenix. Cost is relative to what parts you put in. Clutch brand and quality being one factor.

    HDK Tubular Coil Over for Stock Steering

    Have had the kit on for over a year now. Had the Dart at MATS 2017, and ran the strip and the autocross, and was very pleased with how it performed. Handling is very controlled at speed too. Have had a few runs in the 130 range. Need to switch back to street gears, and really push the speed up.

    Manual VB for a 42RH?

    its a mechanical governor VB, what do you want to gain by making it a manual VB? OD/LU are electronic

    Manual valve body 727 - 3rd gear won't engage under full throttle

    a pressure test on the base(middle) and front servo could tell you some useful information. RMVB the manual valve dictates the gear, the governor circuit doesn't apply, so if you just moved all of the parts to another case,verify no pressure loss issue.

    Is vacuum advance needed with MSD box with a daily driver?

    You have to answer the question about initial timing asked. My understanding is with no vacuum advance, your mileage could suffer, though these distributors come with a few degree shims, for upwards of 18degrees advance. In my scenario, its purely performance, and run 20 initial, and 34...
