I just bought a 24valve with 20,000 miles on it. I has a flexplate on it. I would like to use an automatic. Does the 48re require a computer to run the shift points? I am assuming yes. What does everyone think. I also have to decide if I want to put it in my wm300 which is road worthy, or my wdx which is barn fresh. I know everyone thinks I should be doing a 4bt, but I wanted more that the stock 130 hp, and didn't want to deal with the additional noise and vibration after turning up the 4bt. The motor I bought is rated at 250hp. I plan on swaping dana 60's or 70's as well. Any advice on the tranny/transfer case would be greatly appreciated. I seem to think that 4.10 gearing will be the way to go as I plan on running 11x16's. Thanks for all the great tips on the forum. I love to read it daily.
Garrett
