Got a used v8 from a friend that looks like at some point it was freshed up. Also some real f3ze cobra heads with correct rockers. Just waiting on a few parts to show up before I button it back up n get her going.

Honestly just an off the shelf converter would be fine, I'd say somewhere in the 3000 range and keep the lockup.

Eh I wouldn't recommend it. And you'd have to use a stock valvebody

so the reprogram kit not worth it?
Not the transgo one. Baumann really makes the best kit. But you can't use those on aftermarket valvebodies. The valvebody you have should be perfectly fine as is.
