It smelled so bad for about a week but now it has gone away and provides a nice surface opposed to bare metal

Comparing it to W58/R154 is like comparing apples to oranges...Tremec is not even it that league....a better comparison would be to V160 which I do not have any personal experience with.
The Tremec is very precise and has short shifts....Also the white lightning shifter extension has tension spring bias that is adjustable which is built into the housing for helping centering of shifter when changing gears which is really nice...Havent played around with adjusting yet....
Looking great Ryan! Really like the bedliner idea on the floor!
You definitely have some very cool and unique mods on this car that set it apart from most other SC's!
I like it very much.

Working on getting hood louvers installed....These are a two piece design with the trim ring on the topside of hood and the louver portion on underside....I opted to go with this design so it will help with rigidity of the hood with the holes cut in.
After they both get fitted on the hood sending them off to get powdercoated.

Finished fitting the louvers in the hood and they came out great. Funny thing is they look small on the gigantic SC hood. They louvers are 12" x 16". Next step is to get them sent off to get powdercoated and reinstalled.
I did notice my under hood temps drop off some. My water temp gauge was reading around 5-7 degrees cooler.






Wide shot with the family.....
