Default How much is my new 12-bolt going to slow me down?

I just went from the stock 10-bolt I blew up to now finally a Moser 12-bolt. How much is the drivetrain loss going to effect my times? My current best is 12.22 @ 110.18. Any predictions? Just curious....the 12-bolt I bought has 3.42s just as the 10-bolt did.

I doubt you slow down at all. Maybe lose some power on the dyno, but that really doesn't matter. Prolly would have benefited more with a taller gear.

I know, but I like me driveability and the ability to still get decent gas mileage if I need to take the car on a trip for some reason.

as i've said on FAST, alil gear won't hurt you. Jersey was still getting really good MPG with the 3.73's and the stock auto
