I just did the swap. Go for it. Most everyone will tell you to get a converter. I just don't like how they drive. I gained 4 tenths in the 1/4 going from 2.73 to 3.73

I'm going with gears in the stock rear end. I'm not too worried about my rear end since I'm only running 9.5'' tires, and I don't launch hard. Only been to the track once.
