    So far the the removal took about 3 hours, and it is a pita bigtime with nobody helping!!

    Also had to get the converter out ASAP as one of our members purchased it.

    I will be taking pictures of the HD-2 install as well as the new Billet Circle D converter. Chris over at Circle D gave me a price I could not pass up!!

    I plan to have it back on the road tomorrrow night, but I had to cut my pos pacesetter y-pipe off so I will have to tig it bag together before I have exhaust.. So open headers it is!! I hate tig welding so I am sure I will put it off for a couple of days.

    Is your y-pipe welded or is the pacesetter y-pipe just a pos in general

    Those U bolts they supply with the kit are bad news. Band clamps are much better...you can actually get everything apart after.

    cool deal!
    what's the stall rating of the billet converter?

    yeah the ory is junk, that's why i had a custom one fabbed up with 3 bolt flanges.

    Everyone else may want to see the new converter. But I want to see the old one. Much more exciting for me!!!!!!!!

    Since this install took longer than epected I just finished this morning. All I can say is I need new tires big time!!

    The HD-2 Shift kit has the WORST directions of any part I have ever installed. After figuring out all the parts it came down to the boost vavle wich I could not get to work so I had to end up using the orignal housing and boost valve with the updated rod.
