Default Just installed sy3500

Well, I got my lift at my shop a month or so ago and had the sy3500 sitting around, got the car last monday and after 3 hours its driving again. Its awesome. Doesn't feel loose, but halls ***. I am used to my 68 camaro 383 with a 10" 3500 so?? I know its only an hour or two I've been driving it but unless a couple hundred rpm extra to move bugs you then everyone should have an ST or SY.

I agree. In a few hours most people adjust. My ST 3500 & 3.23 really wasn't much looser than my minivan. My wife never said anything felt wierd to her.

I have a SY3500, too!

They ARE awesome. <img src="images/icons/grin.gif" border="0">

After my SC install, though, it multiplies the torque so much, I wonder if I really need it for Street/Srip.

You made a GREAT choice! <img src="graemlins/gr_judge.gif" border="0" alt="[judgement]" />
