1) Dana's kits are first quality. I buy parts from him myself. I suggest trusting his judgement on that.
2) Need- No
3) It depends on the amount of tolerance you have for high stall converters in a street driven situation.
4) Probably, but because this is a third gen forum, I am going to throw the lock on this thread.
