Russ, car looks great. Hey, a little word of advise. With your CAI install, I did the same exact thing which was putting the screws on the clamps that hold the intake hose to the throttle body up on top. Low and behold, after a period of time, I opened the hood and found out that there isn't enough clearance on the hood and those screws were eating a hole through the hood panel. Do yourself a favor and move those clamps so the screws are on the SIDE of the throttle body.

I also have the 4.10's with a manual, as well as most of the other things he has. i love the 4.10's! when i downshift into 3rd to pass someone and shift into 4th at ~95 mph you can hear and feel the tires break loose, as if the sound of loudmouths are not enough for the passee, getting to hear the tires spin at 95 has to be even better!
