well that's the thing, some of those are still sittin in boxes waitin to go in. i'm waitin on some valvesprings that are on backorder right now, then the cam, gears, converter, etc. are goin in. so i wanted to see what else i needed to do at the same time. rear end sounds good, but if i don't plan on runnin slicks do i need to worry about breakin it? i figured the stock tires would slip long before the rearend would break? but i dunno, i'm no expert. thanks again.

Some people break the rears with cars that are basicly stock......some people have modded car and their's handle it with no problem. The rear in our cars is weak, just some people get lucky.


Myself, I wouldn't even think of using the converter without upgrading the rear.
