I got mine done at the Chevy dealer in Valencia. LOL. Paid $200 under the table. I can ask if my pop's if that tech still works there. He had it done the same day.

+1. Ask for Dwayne, he knows his stufff. He did my old 98 Z28. If you're doing a gear change on the stock 10 bolt, I recommend getting a Ratech pinion collar. About $12 and I had a lot of success with my old 10 bolt. I even tried to break it launching on slicks, nitrous, at 6500 rpms and couldn't break it.

Anyone remember an ad back in the day 2002-04ish that used to run in the recycler or something similar that offered gear installs for $399 parts and labor for Camaros and $349for Mustakes? It might be the 4x4 place everyone is mentioning.....

Ratech pinion collar humm? so that is the secret to make the 10 bolt have some balls, shhhhhhhhh! lol ill have to get that for mine. ill have 4 wheel do all my shit! did u have 4:10 or 3:73's? i heard the 3:73 giv a better track time then the 4:10's and i heard that 4:10's break easier! im still debating
