Yup, on street tune I run 6600 rpm shift points from 1-2 and 2-3, at the track it's 7-7200.. Keep it to 6600 or less though to be safe guys. I'm a little crazy and was willing to deal the consequences of of things going bad... LOL
And I too am very jealous of your swaps... interior looks right, really right... kudos to you both!!!

of course you are, you really getting a 6 speed swap? you gonna do it yourself or go through mike? keep in mind hes all the way in Ohio.
if you go through Mike, hes a nice guy and does great work, just keep in mind you might have a little wait like me and Matt did. but you wont be disapointed.

well i got around to taking a little video, roads were a little wet, first pull from 30 the tires were spinning really good, so i slowed back down and eased in 2nd a little less just so they wouldnt spin. enjoy.

oh im so so sorry, its actually very fun, and quite a bit faster then with the 4t45e that used to be there..... theres really only two downsides to this swap... 1. there is quite more vibration, but with the mounts he made and the bushing he used (which are far more stiff then poly bushing) it can be a little of an annoyance. but its seemed to quiet down some and ive pretty much gotten used to it, so its not a big deal to me. 2nd... the transmission likes to chatter a bit. but its pretty normal for these, and isnt hurting anything. its just a tad noisy at times... but other then that its fantastic, ive got about 1000 miles on it so far. and it still works great. mike did a swell job on this and its very exciting to own 2/2 3.4L 6 speed alero... and i CANT WAIT to go to ass next year with it. im really looking forward to it.

Maybe it's just the angle of the picture, but I'd be worried about the fuel lines being so close to your exhaust crossover. I'll have to check mine when I get home.
Otherwise, looks and sounds great!

I have averaged over 29MPG with the 3000 miles I've put on mine.
Considering that I'm generating ~70HP over stock, I don't think that's too bad.
With my old 4T45-E, average fuel economy was closer to 27MPG.
