Thats awesome fast. I have a T-top 94 in a SOM with hint of gold with black accents and a 68 Firebird i am painting to match it.

His 4.30s wont be bad with 29" tires i dont think.

I would go with the gears, they will work excellent! I love gears!! The engine will roar to live with gears. The mild cam may sound like a dump truck on the interstate. I can tell you that dirt track cars run for 20 min. wide flippin open with mild engines @ like 6700-7600 rpm (clamer classes). I run 5.29:1 with 31x16.5 ET streets and I have jumped on the interstate for a couple of exits and ran 75mph with no problems.I hope that i didn't offend anyone! I have spected out super stock cars and they fly with deep gears! Just my thoughts. thanks JC
