I have some stuff from elite and it is all good product. I think they have the best injectors out there and There fuel system works very well. I have elite 430's and they are really low on icp. they spike near 2000 rpm's and fall off fast.

i remember when i first put the 175's in my truck, it was the first time that it actually idled SMOOTH. it was so smooth you almost couldn't tell it was running while sitting in it except for the sound... the stockers weren't even smooth...
so i am definitely going to put it under the knife one more time. one last hail mary and it's going to get new heads/gaskets/injectors and then i'm closing the book for the 6.0. if it gives me any more problems after this i'm going to consider going the 5.9 route.

yeah i've gone thru about 4 trannies already myself, and been thru several converters, from 1800 up to wellover 3000rpm stall..
current setup seems to be pretty much working well for me now. i'm using a basically stock stall speed , with the billet face, multi disc yada yada yada, and the current tranny seems to be holding the power. it's the equivalent of what you'd get with a full suncoast build, the alto red eagle frictions, and the kolene steels, they are the black steels that have been heat treated. i was running a high stall converter like yours to get my large turbine to spool with the 175's, but now with the 200cc sticks the stock stall spools fine with the extra fuel, except that i now have a bad injector or two the truck has been misfiring real bad.
if i had to do it all over again, i'd just drop the dough and go with a john wood tranny i've heard nothing but good things about those .
