The 12 is good if you have a 5 speed. Get the 16 if its an auto. You only need to spool it once with an auto and it breathes better at higher rpm.

The 16 is soooo laggy from a standstill though. But it is better at high rpm's.

His sig line suggests automatic "...3-gauge pod..." including trans temp. Not a guarantee, but, I'd bet 38cents on an A-518 in there

I was thinking auto myself but I have a getrag and have a temp gauge too.

It probably is a 727. I meant to quote just the part about the trans temp gauge but messed it up somehow.
