I haven't received mine yet. Is there anything useful in it? Wonder how many times Herb Helbig is going to say, "Contact your dealer"? LOL.

Got it. And Herb does not say "Contact your dealer"! Someone's been listening. He still did get the torque numbers wrong. It should read 490 ft-lbs and not 450 ft-lbs.

Was he talking about a GEN 1 car?
No, he specifically stated it was for a 98 motor and then threw in a 500 ft-lbs numbers as a max ?!? But to give him credit, he might be right as seen from the link below. According to the Tremec T-56 specs (part# 1386-000-018), the transmission is rated at ONLY 450 ft-lbs. So the GTS already exceeds that by 40 ft-lbs in stock mode.
