442 - Your post is multi topic. wink I'm going to move this post (with a little edit) over to the Driveline forum for folks to reply back with their thoughts and advice/experience. Please post a new thread on your "engine topic question" in the Engine Shop as that's the best place for folks to try and help you solve your questions on your 216 performance. thumbs_up
