Thank you for the compliment. :blush: I am really proud of my baby. Mine took a little over 5 weeks. Mitch kept me updated, although it was torture waiting. They even washed and shined him up for me.
I'll be interested to hear if you can get the engine cover to fit under a stock hood. Please do keep me informed if possible. I'm excited for you! you're going to have a BIG smile when you drive your Jeep.

Hi. Congratulations, you'll love it! Yes, I still have the 5:13s and they're great. I was thinking they'd be too low for highway driving, which I do a lot of since it's my DD. No problem whatsoever. I do notice that with those gears and the 6L80, my time in 1st through 5th gears is usually pretty short. Meaning it quickly shifts up. Gas mileage doesn't appear to be any worse than before, but the power is wonderful! I feel safer now that I can pass and get out of my own way. I have a pic of the engine, but i'm not sure how to post it on this PM. I did put it in my public post. Oh, I did try to put the pretty Engine Cover on, but it won't fit with the stock hood - about an inch too high. Any other questions, feel free to ask!
