anybody have a suggestion for a decent long-tube header that will work on this application? I need something with a thick flange and good construction.

pretty cool! Did you also go with a 4r70w? What about manifolds, did you stick with the stock ones or did you use headers?

since I haven't seen the 4r70w in person, I wasn't sure if there would be clearance issues with long tubes (they are what I would rather use anyway)

Fuel injection 73. What did you have to do to use the factory wiring harness. Do you have pics of that. How did you tie them in together. I have all that off of a 94 F150.
