I have a 97 Camry that is quad turbo'd wit teh 4.5 turbine. It's cold airs and has a super charga. Custom built headas. and a full JL audio sytem it pushes 150,000 watts and it rattles everay thang. I boared it out 3 inches with a full ricing cam. I like C=3 . I have tri dule clutch with a powar glide posi. its a 16 speed with 10.8 gears. (reverse onlay sortah werks.) and it has 4 4.5 inch carb

 

Would you post a few pictures as I'd like to see what you've done?

 

who cares if reverse doesn't work man. GROWING UP only requires you to move forwards. with your 16 gears you'll have no problem at all.
